The things we keep – an ethnographic study of material possessions in New York City

A home could be likened to a glimpse into our heads. The plaster and lath are the skin and bones, our skull of sorts, a container of all things, sitting, waiting to be observed. The things we keep silently, but visually tell a story of us. Is this why we keep them? So as not to erase our identity? This essay sets out to understand consumer culture through people’s most special things in their domestic spaces. With an ethnographic approach, influenced by The Meaning of Things, I conducted in-person interviews, surveys, and workshops with residents discussing their most special things. From these findings, I created Home Moves prompts to re-engage with our things, and a speculative Living Room Lobby to transform personal collections outside of the domestic space.

我们保留的东西——纽约市物质财产的民族志研究

一个家可以比作我们脑海中的一瞥。石膏和板条是皮肤和骨头,是我们的头骨,是所有东西的容器,坐着,等待观察。我们默默保留的东西,却在视觉上讲述了我们的故事。这就是我们保留它们的原因吗?以免抹去我们的身份?本文旨在通过人们在家庭空间中最特别的东西来理解消费文化。通过受“事物的意义”影响的人种学方法,我与居民进行了面对面的访谈、调查和研讨会,讨论了他们最特别的事情。根据这些发现,我创建了 Home Moves 提示以重新与我们的物品互动,并创建了一个投机的起居室大厅,以将个人收藏品转变为家庭空间之外。
