Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of Heidegger’s philosophy in relation to the exploration of everyday uses of mobile media technologies. This philosopher often paints in broad strokes with the intent to elucidate grand ideas, what his work lacks are considerations of actual practice; what practices, in terms of comportment, correlate with poiēsis, ereignis, and our being-dwellers? This chapter attempts to fill this gap by expounding upon the practices that belong to dwelling, those of inhabitation that permit the formation of worldhood to become apparent.
