Tutorial feedback

Before  the tutorial


Overall concept:


      Crafts... evolving towards extinction?

• Craftsmen.. A disappearing breed.

 Explaining the annihilation of craft that the technological evolution causes.

• Crafts.. the new antique.

The use of sustainable materials is giving the concept of craft a new dimension.

• Crafts.. A niche market.

Handmade objects can be replaced with technology on a professional level, but will remain as a private interest. 

• What is a craft?

Leaving an open discussion to what extents craft can be seen.

After the tutorial

Expand --> then contract (but be ready to do that)

Value. How do we assign value to objects?:

Will the extinction ever happen since collectors will always see a certain value in the objects?

The Aura. How long do we expect things to last?

Where is craft? 

Kind of the same question as "What is craft", but emphasises the fact that we have to think of the topic in the broadest way possible. 

Books for research:

Things that talk, Work of art in the age of mechanical arts, (Didn't get the last one - please add it)

This was some of the things we got, please share everything else you noted!

Great day guys - looking forward to Wednesday!
