Finding a thread

Objects for a new form of commodity therapy

Following on from the loafers conversation and Laura's post here, the projects that we're talking about are looking at how artifacts, systems and material cultures can give us some sort of relief from the emptiness of contemporary living.. They all involve a search for meaning in the construction of the extra-ordinary, they involve activites, actions and experiences that re-design our own position to our environment. Like the initial impitoius behind us working together, we're design a form of self-help or therapy. How do we design object therapy for the over-consumed?
