What one-of-a-kind hand-made object do you own and love most in your life?Ī lot of the suits that I have. It’s made for some weird perfect person that doesn’t even exist. I know-okay, there’s the cliché of being doomed by technology, our children will have some other understanding of technology, and we’re doomed to never being hip to it. And there’s only like 20% of us, so of course they don’t take us into consideration-much less the unique snowflake of yourself. Just trying to use a butter knife somewhere and realizing, ‘This is a right-handed butter knife!’ It’s very uncomfortable. I’m left-handed, so I feel it all the time. They’re made for some version of us-some estimate of us-but when it comes down to it they don’t really fit. It’s absurd that we use these devices- cars, phones, and whatnot-that aren’t really made for us. At the same time, things were made to be purposeful. If you have money or influence or power you can get things you want and if you don’t you’re stuck. Or if you don’t like the style? Too bad! But it really is for the haves and have-nots. Can you imagine living in a city where there’s only one person who makes shoes? And there’s only so many sizes of shoes, and if you’re not that size of shoe, you gotta make your own. Conceptually, and in every possible way, I agree. You said Bespoke is a ‘term employed to mean an item custom-made to measure.’ Do you miss when the craftsperson hadn’t been replaced by the assembly line?Ībsolutely! Entirely. He speaks now from Susina Bakery about this world’s many failings and the oncoming alien battle we’re all going to face. 2011 marks ten years of his recording, celebrated now with the release of his latest Bespoke on Ninja Tune, as well as a third Magical Properties tour, and shows at SXSW and Coachella. Milosh”ĭaedelus is a perfect Victorian gentleman who makes beautiful records about wars no one cares about and the virtues of handmade clothing.
