[3] "Technology and Mind" Seminar "Doll Wall Experience"

Looking at the Sakan plasterers artisans, the mortar was moved lightly, and in an instant a flat wall was finished. But it's not something you can do to actually try. Why don't you learn from a professional and experience wall painting? Move the mortar to a certain level while feeling the weight of the soil. Let's experience the feeling of painting with the body.

[4] "Technology and Mind" Lecture "Practical Sakan plasterers Study-Preparation for Establishing Space"

Makoto Kuzumi, who had been studying in Sakan plasterers since childhood and had mastered a variety of techniques when he was 20 years old, still moved to Kyoto to pursue his traditional construction work. In Kyoto, technology was natural for us to be able to do it, and it was a world where harmony was required. Sakan plasterers's knowledge is not enough, it is important to be familiar with other jobs and materials, and to see what is required there. How can you behave freely without being bound while knowing the tradition? I would like to talk about Mr. Kusumi's challenge.
