The Sympathyof Things

Description

From pavements and handrails, to hairdryers and cereal bowls, we don’t think enough about the things we fill our lives with. In this Novel series for BBC Radio 4, Turner Prize-winning architecture collective Assemble interrogate the way everyday objects have evolved since the dawn of Fordism – and how our lives have evolved in their midst. Galvanized by the disruptive potential of cutting-edge digital design, Amica Dall and Giles Smith use the contemporary craft movement to examine our changing relationship with labor, value, and the material world.
