| |
| − |
| |
| − | Making = feeling and thinking
| |
| − | Feeling and thinking = part of making
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Crafting can be fullfilling, nessecary, and can make a person aware of its process. This makes it possible to put ideas and knowledge in the process while the crafter also learns something in the meantime.
| |
| − | So, because of the crafting you become a part of your work and so, it can grow and develop as long as you are a part of it’s creation.
| |
| − | Ruskin was a social thinker and his ideas of a better society were that the industralism would have to go and we should have more respect for the people and the environment.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | For Ruskin, financial wealth which does not contribute to
| |
| − | the stock of human happiness is no wealth at all.
| |
| − | John Ruskin - A human being can be forced to work
| |
| − | as a ‘tool’, following the precise instructions of their masters,
| |
| − | making things correctly, but they are dehumanized and their
| |
| − | spirit is gagged. Or they can be allowed to ‘begin to imagine,
| |
| − | to think, to try to do anything worth doing’ – and this might
| |
| − | lead to roughness, failure, and shame, but also unleashes ‘the
| |
| − | whole majesty’ of the individual.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | We are always in these days endeavouring to separate the
| |
| − | two; we want one man to be always thinking, and another
| |
| − | to be always working, and we call one a gentleman, and the
| |
| − | other an operative; whereas the workman ought often to
| |
| − | be thinking, and the thinker often to be working, and both
| |
| − | should be gentlemen, in the best sense.29

| |
| − | Conclusie Ruskin
| |
| − | his great contribution was to establish individual
| |
| − | autonomous creativity as a core value which society must
| |
| − | nurture, not crush, if it is to retain any moral authority, or
| |
| − | quality of life.

| − | Ideas Ruskin
| |
| − | Crafting can be important for being happy and feeling like a part of a creation. With the industrialism people cant be involved in the process enough to gain expertise and fullfilment wich ends up in people feeling like a part of a machine, lifeless and unpersonal.
| |
| − | Ideas Morris
| |
| − | Morris believed in the power of individually crafted work and the importance of individual self-expression. Thus he was an opponent of rational systems, which tend to destroy this individual freedom and creativity. Morris fancied the Middle Ages and describes them as a time in which there was a real community with values, arts of its own and no systematic degradation of the human spirit. Morris thought of hands-on engagement with craft, as the true way of understanding craft.
| |
| − | Even though Morris had a vision of a socialist society, he was the owner of a business creating handcrafted luxury objects, sold to the elite. This might be explained by his “all-or-nothing” attitude: He would rather create the ideal book than creating a lower quality book, due to limited resources.

| |
| − | Het hoort goed bij het persoon die het maakt omdat het een eigenzinnig ding is, het komt uit de regio, komt uit de manier van maken, materialen die toegankelijk waren.. het zegt dus een hoop over het persoon.

| |
| − | Ruskin en Morris verschil:
| |
| − | Ruskin maakt voor iedereen
| |
| − | Morris wilt hogere kwaliteit voor een kleiner publiek
| |
| − | Whilst ‘fine art’ is more
| |
| − | dependent on hierarchies and elites, upon which it relies
| |
| − | to validate the work, craft is more about creativity and the
| |
| − | process of making at a vibrant, grassroots level: proud of its
| |
| − | grounded, everyday nature, and not insecurely waiting for
| |
| − | an artworld critic, collector, or curator to one day say that it
| |
| − | was all worthwhile.
| |
| − | Punk ideologies are a group of varied social and political beliefs associated with the punk subculture. In its original incarnation, the punk subculture was primarily concerned with concepts such as anti-establishment, equality, freedom, anti-authoritarianism,individualism, direct action, free thought and non-conformity.
| |
| − | What are the similarities and differences between Ruskin and Karl Marx? Karl Marx was a German philosopher, economist, sociologist. Marx's work in economics laid the basis for much of the current understanding of labor and its relation to capital, and subsequent economic thought. He is one of the founders of sociology and social science. Marx believed, were run on behalf of the ruling class and in their interest while representing it as the common interest of all.

| |
| − | Arts & Crafts movement: The Arts and Crafts philosophy derived partly from Ruskin's social criticism, which related the moral and social health of a nation to the qualities of its architecture and to the nature of work. The aesthetic and social vision of the Arts and Crafts Movement also derived from ideas developed in the 1850s by the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. The Brotherhood was formed by William M. Morris and Edward Burne-Jones. The Arts and Crafts style emerged from the attempt to reform design and decoration and the reaction against contemporary styles that the reformers associated with machine-production De beweging ontstond als een opstand tegen het tijdperk van de industriële revolutie en een afschuw van de goedkope en lelijke massaproducten uit het Victoriaanse tijdperk.

| |
| − | DIY can be spread in 3 different kinds: The decorative, the vernacular and the politics of work.
| |
| − | Decorative: craft that doesnt meet up to the standards of ‘fine art’
| |
| − | The vernacular: craft that speaks the language of the craftsman, were it comes from, wat it knows and wat it can use.
| |
| − | The politics of work: craft with a message
| |
| − | Central to the diy culture was that all was of equal status, to connect with nature, people and themselves
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Ivan Illich believes that children should learn from experience and not from a forced schooling system that only learns abstract ways and not everyday important things like building, growing food etc.
| |
| − | Stewart Brand: wanted people to see a picture of the whole earth so that people would be more concious of their place in a unlimited source of the earth

| |
| − | PUNK DIY
| |
| − | A similar but different version of the DIY ethos is the ‘lofi
| |
| − | ’ music and zine culture, infl uenced in part by the punk
| |
| − | scene. This DIY culture is characterized by a rejection of the
| |
| − | glossy, highly produced, celebrity-oriented mainstream of
| |
| − | popular culture.
| |

| |
| − | Amy Spencer
| |
| − | Believes in a different magazine called zine to be a gift, its a about feminism, something she was very involved with.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | DIY culture and web 2.0
| |
| − | The internet has been a great source for the DIY culture. It helped the group of people with the same believes to find a platform to learn, create and share together.
| |
| − | The main reason why people in this time decide to do DIY is because of the sustainability, this is the first century were we recognise the damage we created to the earth and also the urge to stop it.
| |
| − | The biggest cause of damage to the earth has to do with the constant urge of humankind to ‘gather more and more stuff and most of all new stuff because this brings a bigger satisfaction. This is a primal instinct that was usefull when we still lived in small huts with little recources, nowadays the urge is unnecary and caused a lot of serious problems to the earth and our future.
| |
| − | Also within the sustainabiltiy theme, the internet has made much improvement to a ‘cleaner’ way of sharing. A while ago the writer of the book had serious trouble finding a publisher for his book, wich eventually caused him to send 800 copies of his book around the world in hope for recognition. He said that the internet would have made his goal of reaching a wide audience and finding the right people much easier.

| |
| − | I started with the interest in thin ceramics that take a different form. For example; clay becomes textile, like on the picture. When i started to roll different ceramic sorts into a thin piece i decided i wanted to make my own machine. To begin I bought a spaghetti machine to find out wat the best material would be to put in between two rollers. After finding te right substance i wanted to create my own rolls that give the material shape. Eventually i want to try folding a line on the ceramics and shape i into a line of dishes. The dishes will have the look of paper or a product you would normally throw out but have the quality of a long lasting product.
| |

| |
| − |
| |
| − | The process that mostly inspires me is the pressing of the materials and the idea of giving a new look to a material.
| |
| − | The pressing machine has a nice combination of manual labour and machinery. By changing the rolls in the machine, the machine can make a endless amount of different object were the crafstman doesnt need to master every sort in, by simply rolling the rolls passed each other, any pattern or extrusion in the roll can make the material change shape. Also, to use the material in a different way for a everyday purpose gives the object an extra dimension. So not only is the material itself a different texture, it also gives a different vibe because of the way it is build after that proces. I am thinking about folding dishes from the flat material.

| |
| − | The content of my work is based on a combination of a few techniques, first of all i want to create a part of a tool that can be replaced with different parts. Ive learned more about materials and the experimenting with them, i did this in my proces of finding the right substance for my spaghetti machine. But also, i found a project that doesnt really fit in the story of Ruskin or in the line of the industrialism, my tool is literally a combination of mastering the right combination of material and the right combination of rolls that need practice, but then again its also a machine and the actual movement that gives the material shape is a repetive, not hard movement of basically circling a wheel foreward to make the rolls move the material in between. So I would say, is my machine really a machine that makes the user feel detached from the object and a constant, braindead movement, or is the crafter enough involved in the ‘preparation’ of the actual proces that it makes him feel more attached and fullfilled when he makes the object.
