The Craft of Things
Object-Subject Relationship in Nowadays Working Tools
abstract
The research examines the relationship between subject and object through the instruments and work tools currently in use. The objects that we use and that surround us, with which we live and work, act on us and on the collectivity, they shape our habits, they convey our relationships, they structure our personality and the way we recognize and we are recognized within our community. The different usages of working tools and they way we keep, store and share them are useful sources and containers of information and means of representation and classification of the societies where they are in use.
Keywords: Working tools • Subject-object • Representation
