How are new manufacturing methods changing traditional crafts ... and what can we learn from this?
In my research I investigate a variety of phenomena that
happen between carpenters and modern CNC joinery systems.
Is there a substantial change in 'their craft' ... what about their expertise, the tacit knowledge? are they still carpenters or just machine operators? and how do we build our wooden houses when everything (might one day) come from gigantic 3D printers? am sure that I will not be able to answer (all) these questions ... but at least I hope to make another contribution to the current debate on technology, work and the future in timber construction. It is no longer a question that the digital transformation of our society is also changing craft professions. We therefore need to think about the direction in which the processes can/should be steered
