The thing that interested me most in my essay was about our desire for novelty. To be stimulated by new things. That this tends to create object churn and how do we respond to that?
Here are some that seemed centred around this issue:
Novelty
1/ The state of being new or novel, newness.
2/ A new product, and innovation.
3/ A small mass produced trinket.
4/ in novelty theory, newness, density of complexification, and dynamic change as opposed to static habituation
Appetite
1/ Desire for, or relish of, food or drink; hunger
2/ A strong desire, an eagerness or longing.
3/ The desire for some personal gratification, either of the body or of the mind.
synonyms: craving, longing, desire, appetency, passion
(To) Stimulate
1/ To encourage into action
2/ To arouse an organism to functional activity
synonyms: encourage, induce, provoke, animate, arouse, energise, excite, perk up
Excite
1/ (transitive) to stir the emotions of
2/ to arouse or bring out feelings; to stimulate
Leaning towards excite or stimulate as they are verbs.
