To Be Human

2/11/2016

Recent news items have challenged the very idea of what it means to be human. Apparently, it has been determined by anthropologists that several different ape species have entered, and have perhaps been for some time, in their own version of what is referred to the “stone age” in the human developmental timeline.

Since tool using and tool making have long been considered the very definition of “human”, is it time to consider how we might redefine our humanness?
As a student of anthropology myself, I came across a tidbit I have long preserved in memory but cannot still cite the source…Members of every known culture, from ancient to modern, have adorned themselves with some form of jewelry. Could it be possible that this may help to form a new definition of what it means to be human?
I’m ready to run with that!

    I have an intimate familiarity with both the materials with which I work and the process of working with people to create meaningful designs.
    These passions, and my interest in utilizing appropriate technology to manage my business and connections, inform my current business model
     
    ​ 
    And...
    I love to write.  I've been frequently published, mostly within the jewelry industry, but on topics as wide-ranging motor-home reviews to metallurgical science.  

    Oh yeah, I love to cook and eat well so you will see me diverting to food and travel topics here too!  Have fun reading and recommend me to your friends!
