Ep. 14 - The Vibration of Materials with Ania & Amie Date: 10th March, 2020. In today’s episode we explore the vibration of our material culture - how our things/ materials/ clothing holds energetic frequencies, and how we as designers and users contribute to this. We chat about: The energetic and unseen consequences of unsustainable supply chain’s on both makers, the planet and the people using the final products. The discarding of clothing as linked to the wearer feeling the trauma within the supply chain that it took to create that piece. How things produced with love, slowness and care carry a higher frequency than one with chemicals, exploitation and extraction. Marie Kondo’s ‘the art of tidying up’ revolution that sees people asking themselves whether their things spark them joy. Dr. Masaru Emoto’s scientific research on the molecular structure of water that evolves through energetic frequencies. The importance of care and reverence toward our material culture, both physically and energetically. How sustainability can begin by first looking within ourselves as designers and creatives. + Loads more…. Even if this idea is a bit out there or ‘woo-woo’ for you, we invite you to open yourself up to this possibility even in a speculative sense and see what arises.
