    Rebranding “Made in India” Through Cultural Sustainability – Exploring and Expanding Indian Perspectives

    REBRANDING “MADE IN INDIA” THROUGH CULTURAL SUSTAINABILITY – EXPLORING AND EXPANDING INDIAN PERSPECTIVES Thesis for Two year Master, 30 ECTS Textile Management Monica Boța-Moisin Raphael Schreiber Thesis Number: 2021.7.01 Title: Rebranding “Made in India” through Cultural Sustainability - Exploring and Expanding Indian Perspectives Year of publication: 2021 Authors: Monica Boța-Moisin and Raphael Schreiber Supervisor: Hanna Wittrock Abstract This exploratory study is a first attempt to translate the Indian cultural context from a socio- cultural, and legal perspective by identifying the values attributed to Indian textile craftsmanship by Indian textile and fashion stakeholders, and how their perspective is influenced by the global recognition and perception of Indian textile crafts and connotation of “Made in India”. At the same time the study investigates the meaning of “sustainability” in the Indian cultural context, in relation to textile craftsmanship, and how this relates to the Western concept of “sustainability”. Through field research in conjunction with a series of in- depth unstructured interviews, this study reveals that Cultural Sustainability is the dominating narrative in the Indian cultural context due to the prevalence of culturally embedded sustainability practices and the role of textile craftsmanship in sustaining livelihood, being a unique exercise of positioning Indian textile craftsmanship within a framework of cultural heritage as a valuable source of knowledge for sustainable practices in the fashion and textile industry. Unique about this study are the India-centric approach combined with the ethnicity of the subjects interviewed - who are, without exception, Indian nationals, whose work, voice and reputation are shaping India's contemporary textile craft-sustainability narrative (being referred to as the “Indian textiles and fashion elite”) and the framing of traditional craftsmanship from a legal perspective, introducing the notion of legal protection of traditional textile knowledge and traditional cultural expressions.
  • Current and Future Trends in Yarn Production1

    Current and Future Trends in Yarn Production1

    Volume 2, Issue 2, Spring 2002 CURRENT AND FUTURE TRENDS IN YARN PRODUCTION1 William Oxenham, Ph.D. College of Textiles, North Carolina State University ABSTRACT While developments in yarn manufacturing continue to be promoted by machinery makers, spinners are challenged to produce the best quality yarn at an acceptable price. This often results in a compromise, since improved yarn quality can usually only be achieved at a higher processing cost (including raw material selection). An additional difficulty is that the significance of the various attributes of quality change for different yarn’s end uses. While the solution to lowering yarn costs, that has been adopted in recent years has been to create large, almost fully automated spinning mills, this philosophy is presently being questioned, since this significantly reduces flexibility with respect to the fiber and yarn type that can be processed. This is obviously at odds with the current paradigm of customer driven, quick response manufacturing, since this demands inherent flexibility in the successful supplier. This paper reviews the current state of technological innovation in yarn production and examines the relative merits and disadvantages of each system. Some insight will also be given concerning those factors that limit further development of some of these systems. Historical trends in US yarn production have also been surveyed, and the combined information obtained is used as an indicator of the future directions in this key industry. KEYWORDS: Yarn Production, Spinning, Vortex Spinning, Centrifugal Spinning 1. INTRODUCTION shortcomings in certain aspects of yarn and fabric quality (Figure 2). This aspect Research into new technology for yarn cannot be over stressed since while ring formation peaked in the 60’s & 70’s.

Once the renaissance begins, a change occurs and the Fine Arts and the Applied Arts are separated, with different studies established for each of them.
  • Heidegger's Theories and the Stained Glass

    Heidegger's Theories and the Stained Glass

    1st Annual International Interdisciplinary Conference, AIIC 2013, 24-26 April, Azores, Portugal - Proceedings- HEIDEGGER'S THEORIES AND THE STAINED GLASS Ghioldus Andreea, Arch., Phd. Student University of Architecture and Town-Planning Ion Mincu, Bucharest , Romania Abstract: This paper work brings into discussion some of Martin Heidegger theories and analyze the way we can apply them in the stained glass situation. Will they apply in exactly the same way the philosopher says or there are some differences revealed by the different characteristic of the stained glass? The work is divided in two parts. The first part discuss the Heidegger's theories about technology. The philosopher says that the technology affects the way the people relate to the nature and that they began to think only about the ways to exploit it. Well in this case, about stained glass, this problem is different, because by it's nature, the stained glass making process never change the relationship between the artist and the glass. So, no matter the tools used for making stained glass, the traditional ones or the computer, the creative process remains the same. The second part analyze another of Heidegger's concepts from his work “The Origin of Work of Art” which are the thing, the tool and the work of art. Heidegger says that an object can be a thing or a tool or a work of art and that it can never accomplished more than one of these characteristics. Well here we can see that stained glass have different rules. It's duplicity allow it to be a work of art and a tool in the same time.
