Ep. 70: The Master Woodworker and the Foamie Butcher: Shapers Jonathan Alcock and Matthew Schenning
Listen now
Description
Jonathan Alcock is a high end wood furniture maker who took a busman's holiday to learn how to build a wooden surfboard. Matthew Schenning is an artist who found a surf school foamie in the trash and hacked a swallow tail in it, painted the NASA worm logo it and vowed to tinker with it until the foam can't be surfed. They both presented their creations at last month's It Doesn't Not Work Design Symposium.
