========[ Invite a Friend - http://www.ganoksin.com/invite.htm ]======== My PhD work was on this concept. My reason about why this is happening, which I will be presenting at NAEA (National Arts Education Assiciation) Conference next month in New Orleans, is the fact that the world is in a "renaissance" where the arts/artists are looked at as philosophers once were. THey are merging globalization, humanities and social issues together. What is happening now is what Dr. Suzanne Lacy refers to as the "Great Turning", where the world is tired of technology, impersonalization, and 'fast' communities. The younger generations are now opting for DIY activies, learning domesticated crafts such as knitting, spinning(yarn), needlepoint and quilting. These interests result in envoronmental and humanitarian choices that better society as a whole and create kinder communities. Good luck with your speech, I know you will do great. If you need any more help, feel free to ask.
