| Inching Toward a More Reflective Craft |
| As the frequency of my postings has dropped off lately, one might surmise that I have been busy.

| As a social experiment in Flash Mobbing, I put together a call-in talk show today at 1:00.

| An Art-Craft Juxtapose on Feminism |
| This morning, I am off to Haystack Mountain School of Crafts for a conference called The Object and Making: Function and Meaning.
I am hoping to return to New York renewed, refreshed and optimistic about the future of craft. As some of you may have gathered from the cynicism and ire in my most recent post [...] |
| A New Podcast Concerning the Re-shaping of Knowledge |
| Here’s the podcast from my call-in show experiment from Sunday April 8th, 2007. While no one called in explicitly to have a conversation about my topic, I did manage to test the platform. I also articulated what I think needs to happen to move this “redefining craft” conversation forward on this site [...] |
