Enchantment and Perpetual Desire: Theorizing Disenchanted Enchantment and Technology Adoption RUSSELL W. BELK HENRI A. WEIJO ROBERT V. KOZINETS ABSTRACT Dominant perspectives on technology adoption and consumption tend to be cognitive, instrumental, and individualistic. We offer a desire-centered, future oriented and culturally grounded alternative model called the Disenchanted Enchantment Model (DEM). Drawing on historical evidence and revised interpretations of theories of enchantment and disenchantment by Weber and Saler, we show that desire is at the heart of technology consumption’s enchantments, and how its fulfilment is temporary, sceptical, and ironic. We provide an important cultural counterbalance to models such as the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), which replace wonder with reason. Instead we theorize the process that drives contemporary technology adoption as centering on desirous senses of wonderment and anticipation. We offer current and recent examples of the DEM process and discuss the implications this model holds for a new understanding of technology, consumption, desire, and broader consumer culture. Keywords: Diffusion of innovations, disenchantment, enchantment, wonder, scepticism, technology adoption, consumer desire. What follows could be read as a celebration of models of automobiles, fashions, and movie technology, unbridled technophilia, technological franchises, or daily, weekly, and monthly solutionism, and even technological determinism. newspapers, magazines, and television series. Today, Although the consumers of whom we speak might we have faster anticipatory cycles of revelation well be accused of such utopianism, we well realize through blogs, podcasts, YouTube channels, social the dangers of such a stance. Nevertheless, what we media, and streaming music, television, and films. seek to theorize is how we succumb to these Our project began with the observation that in the seductive sources of hope. Much of the scholarship sphere of new technologies, anticipatory about technology is still laden with assumptions of consumption has gone into overdrive as consumers consumer rationality and calculation. However, by have become eager participants in the perpetual tracing a historical and cultural path, this article will marketplace drama that seeks to anoint something as reveal the mix of desires—for pleasure, the future, the next new thing. We present a cyclical model of spectacle, and liberation—at the heart of technology adoption and call it the Disenchanted technology’s perpetual charm to humanity. As Enchantment Model (DEM). It is a considerably consumers, we have long consumed serial goods and enhanced, more imaginative, more forward-looking, epistemic objects whose properties we collectively and more emotion-driven alternative to functional observe, explore, and anticipate (Knorr Cetina 1997; Adoption and Diffusion of Innovations and Zwick and Dholakia 2006a, 2006b). Think of annual Technology Acceptance Models that still dominate BELK, WEIJO & KOZINETS 1 marketing theorization on technology adoption (e.g., psychological makeup and willingness to appropriate Bahlol, et al., 2018; Fathema, Shannon, and Ross new technologies: innovators, early adopters, early 2015; Mazzarol and Reboud 2019). majority, late majority, and laggards. Not included We begin by reviewing prior literature on but implicit in his model are non-adopters. Rogers’ technology adoption processes and elaborating on model held the behavioral and attitudinal traits of why they do not fully explain the cultural climate these groups to be relatively consistent; eager underlying the current era of technology innovators in car shopping should not be hesitant consumption. We then revisit the Weberian laggards when buying televisions.

We explain evinced by more recent discussions relating to so- how disenchanted enchantment (Saler 2012) has called digital natives (Prensky 2008). Rogers’ model become central to contemporary consumer culture still enjoys widespread popularity and has had a great and especially the consumption of novel influence on, for example, von Hippel’s (1986) lead technologies. Disenchanted enchantment provides a user theories that follow related patterns of context for technology consumption’s historical and psychological profiling. ideological present (Mick and Fournier 1998; Rogers also suggested that factors such as Kozinets 2008) by introducing the dubious-but- observability, complexity, and trialability affected the willing consumer driven by a desire to desire (Belk et rate at which innovations diffuse.

In 1971 Johnny Thunders formed the New York Dolls, a band of transvestites, and John Cale (of the Velvet Underground's fame) recorded Jonathan Richman's Modern Lovers, while Alice Cooper went on stage with his "horror shock" show. In London, Malcom McLaren opened a boutique that became a center for the non-conformist youth. The following year, 1972, was the year of David Bowie's glam-rock, but, more importantly, Tom Verlaine and Richard Hell formed the Neon Boys, while Big Star coined power-pop. Finally, unbeknownst to the masses, in august 1974 a new band debuted at the CBGB's in New York: the Ramones. The future was brewing, no matter how flat and bland the present looked.

  • The True Story of Maddie Bright Mary-Rose Maccoll
    AUSTRALIA APRIL 2019 The True Story of Maddie Bright Mary-Rose MacColl The bestselling author of In Falling Snow returns with a spellbinding tale of friendship, love and loyalty Description 'This book has it all: an unforgettable first chapter, a fascinating insight into the Prince of Wales' visit to Australia in 1920 through the eyes of two women who worked for him, and a compelling mystery set in contemporary times, against the backdrop of Princess Diana's death. Truly wonderful storytelling.' - Natasha Lester, bestselling author of The Paris Seamstress In 1920, at seventeen years of age, Maddie Bright takes a job as a serving girl on the Royal Tour of Australia by Edward, Prince of Wales. She meets the prince's young staff - his vivacious press secretary Helen Burns, his most loyal man Rupert Waters - and the prince himself - beautiful, boyish, godlike. Maddie might be on the adventure of a lifetime. Sixty-one years later, Maddie Bright is living a small life in a ramshackle house in Paddington, Brisbane. But an unlooked- for letter has arrived in the mail and there's news on the television from Buckingham Palace that makes her shout back at the screen. Maddie Bright's true story may change. In August 1997, London journalist Victoria Byrd is tasked by her editor with the job of finding the elusive M.A. Bright, author of the classic war novel of ill-fated love, Autumn Leaves. It seems Bright has written a second novel, and Victoria has been handed the scoop. Recently engaged to an American film star, Victoria is horrified by her own sudden celebrity and keen to escape to Australia to follow the story.

Eburne Director of Graduate Studies in Comparative Literature Associate Professor in Comparative Literature and English Thesis Supervisor Sydney Rice Aboul-Hosn Senior Lecturer in Comparative Literature Honors Adviser Jennifer Ann Wagner-Lawlor Associate Professor in Women’s Studies and English Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT This project investigates the meaning of ‘identity’ and ‘home’ in two contemporary films, The Business of Fancydancing (2002, dir. Sherman Alexie) and Transamerica (2005, dir. Duncan Tucker). Both films would typically be defined as “nontraditional” in the context of American coming-of-age stories, a cinematic genre each nonetheless invokes. These films function as cultural representations of marginalized identities and their trajectories. Seymour, the protagonist of The Business of Fancydancing, is a gay/two spirit Native American poet who struggles with maintaining a sense of community identity after leaving the reservation. In Transamerica, Bree Osborne, a conservative transsexual woman in the process of transitioning from male to female (formally known as “Stanley”), embarks on a journey with an unexpected travelling companion after learning that she has a delinquent son, who is searching for his “father.” Both films provide fertile ground for an investigation of how these categories of home and belonging, as well as ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation have become much more dynamically nuanced in contemporary society, both in representation as well as in lived experience.

Gek trouwens hoe in al die obituaries van afgelopen week het altijd weer over die Bananenplaat en Transformer ging, nergens over zijn liveplaat Rock n Roll Animal uit 1974 met deze Sweet Jane als openingstrack en waarin gitaristen Dick Wagner en Steve Hunter tekeer gaan alsof ze bij The Allman Brothers solliciteren! Lou Reed in The Originals, maar u vindt het zeker niet erg als hier af en toe een opmerkelijke cover binnensluipt. 5:39 2 All Tomorrow's Parties (Reed) Glitterhouse DIRTMUSIC 2 Dirtmusic, een project rond Hugo Race met de Tuareg-band Tamikrest, opgenomen in de Malinese hoofdstad Bamako. All Tomorrow's Parties is daarnaast ook door Bryan Ferry, Nick Cave, June Tabor, Japan en The Simple Minds opgenomen en was in de Velvet Underground & Nico- versie eerst een single alvorens het op hun Bananendebuut terecht kwam. Er wordt altijd gezegd dat Lou het maar niks vond dat Andy Warhol die Nico als vijfde groepslid aanbracht, maar Lou schreef toch maar mooi voor haar ook deze Femme Fatale. 2:37 3 Femme Fatale (Reed) MGM VELVET UNDERGROUND & NICO 4 The Velvet Underground & Nico, al dient gezegd dat deze Femme Fatale niet over haar gaat maar over een andere Andy Warhol protégée Edie Sedgwick.

ON BEHAVIOR, VALUES, AND EXPERIENCE THROUGH NEW MEDIA1 […] artists have a very specific responsibility: it is in the work of art that what constitutes the libido makes itself most purely visible. What is the work of an artist—say, a painter? To produce an eye. The eye is not sim- ply that which is found in the eye socket in the skull. No more than the tongue is only in the mouth. The tongue [la langue], the organ that is in our mouth, is our tongue, not a cat’s tongue [langue de chat], only inas- much as it also produces language [la langue]. As for our eye, it is paint- ing, sculpture, architecture, the entire visibility of that which has been seen by those who have seen it only to the extent that they knew how to bring it to sight, that weaves it into a noetic eye—and by which it trans- individualizes itself. Just as the tongue/language [la langue] is constructed, the spiritual eye that visible works give us to see is woven by the hands of artists. Therein it appears that a noetic organ always forms a system with one or several other organs that are themselves as such noetic, and that what links them passes outside the body, through a social body that is woven by a tekhnē: the tongue with the hand of the writer, the eye with the hand of the painter, the ear with the hand and the eye of the musician, and so on —all of which is articulated by words, papers, brushes, pianos, and other instruments.” (Stiegler, 2011, p.
