'Shaping the Ride' looks great at the V&A
Just back from V&A, London and the short movie 'Shaping the Ride' looks really good. It seems to reflect well The Power of Making philosophy and celebrates local craft, although it still is a shame that waves were too small on the day.

Art as becoming
'That artworks are not being but a process of becoming…Their continuity is demanded technologically by the particular elements. They are in need of continuity and capable of it by virtue of their incompleteness…It is as a result of their own constitution that they go over into their other, find continuance in it, want to be extinguished in it, and in their demise determine what follows them.' (Adorno, 2004 p.232)
Circumspective Concern
…the theoretical attitude towards the ‘world’ ‘arises’ out of circumspective concern with the ready-to-hand. Not only circumspective discovering of entities within-the-world but also the theoretical discovering of them is founded upon Being-in-the-world. The existential-temporal Interpretation of these ways of discovering is preparatory to the temporal characterization of this basic sate of Dasein. (Heidegger, 2008, p.408)
