Are there any books that solely consist of describing objects and the emotional impact they have on you? A sort of written still life? For example, a book that describes the emotions born by the observation of different kinds of lightbulbs. I mean, things like brightness, dimness, unique markings on the electrical foot contact, the way in which the support and contact wires are positioned, how many curlicues are in the Tungsten filament etc. The interaction of all these elements can under careful observation effect divergent intellectual and emotional reactions (and so far we've only discussed incandescent bulbs). The anatomy of fluorescent tubes emits a different intellectual and emotional response when you consider the argon and mercury vapor trapped inside the tube beating ceaselessly against the phosphor coating and the electrodes staring at each other like two battalions watching a glistening battle unfold before them. The anatomy of LED bulbs never had any impact on me, strangely enough.
