Making, repairing and modifying your own tools is a political act.
And in the process we carefully shape and mend our own environment, according to our own needs and desires. It opens up the space for dialog and [re]considerations. In making and shaping our tools, we are nudged to continuously question them. How does this function, why does it function this way, and how do I want it to function?
And in making-together, we nurture an environment where these conversations can be had outside of the inner circle. And where words are put into action, and action is put into words. Where everyone could be part of the
conversation, because we are talking lived experiences. On the level of:
what can we do right here, right now?
