Kookaï, Pimkie, Go Sports... Ces trois enseignes connues du grand public traversent une période très compliquée. Elles rejoignent les Camaïeu, la Halle et bien d'autres qui sont en grande difficulté depuis des années. Beaucoup d'enseignes ont survécu 2 ans de plus car il y a eu le coronavirus et le "Quoi qu'il en coûte" gouvernemental qui les a maintenues artificiellement en vie. C'est ce qu'on a appelé des entreprises "zombies". Elles étaient sans doute condamnées. Depuis 10 ans, la fréquentation dans les magasins baissait doucement de 2 ou 3% chaque année... Depuis le coronavirus, le trafic dans les boutiques est en chute de 17% selon l'Alliance du Commerce. Et ça ne remonte pas. Et les soldes d'hiver sont en dessous des attentes, une fois de plus.

In episode 284, Kestrel welcomes designer Angel Chang to the show. Over the last decade, Angel has been working with artisans in southwest rural China, making garments using zero carbon design / Indigenous practices (all-natural, locally-made, zero electricity). “For the past 20,000 years, we've been making our own fabric and you know, using ingredients from our own backyard. It's only in the last 150 years that electricity was invented, that chemical dyes were created, that plastic and plastic textiles were created. And all the stuff that we say is polluting for the fashion industry — well, that was all created in the last 150 years. So, if we really want to create quote unquote sustainable clothing, we just have to make clothing like it was before then, before the Industrial Revolution." -Angel The sustainability and fashion narrative has an obsession with whatever is *new and innovative*. The focus regularly leans toward innovations in fabric development or tech-centered approaches to reduce carbon emissions. There tends to be this obsession with looking forward into the future, instead of slowing down to look back and maybe unveil what we could also learn from the past.  This week's guest has deep knowledge around this. After falling in love with the hand-embroidered Miao traditional costumes exhibited in museums around the world, Angel found herself traveling to remote mountain villages in Guizhou Province, China, searching for the elders who made them. And she ended up finding them.  Years later, she's working in collaboration with several communities, in an effort to help preserve their textile traditions that over the last 30 years or so, have been eroding amidst China's rapid modernization. As she says – “Saving these textile traditions is not just about preserving the past. They can also provide tangible solutions for an environmentally sustainable future.” Turns out, zero carbon design – fashion that's all natural and locally-made with no electricity — is possible.  Quotes & links from the conversation: “I think maybe it's human nature to always want to find something that's new and flashy. But I feel like it's also feeding an obsession that will never be satiated. There's always so much emphasis on technology and the future, and the thing is — technology is not going to be the thing that's going to save us from climate change or whatever. We have to learn how to work with nature again.” -Angel (49:59) Alexis Bunten, Angel mentions them and some of their wisdom about the need to reconnect with our own roots “I think not being able to know who you are fuels a lot of insecurity and unrest internally. And so, I feel like learning about where we come from, our ancestral roots, and going to that physical land and just feeling it and spending some time there — I feel like that will give us a lot of solace and calm us down and bring more satisfaction to our hearts and souls.” -Angel (59:38) “How Ancient Textiles Can Help The Future”, Angel's TEDTalk Angel Chang Website > Follow Angel on Instagram > Follow Angel Chang (the brand) on Instagram >

The F-Word is released bi-weekly featuring timely commentaries by Laura Flanders and guests.Twenty-three minutes. That's how long it takes for your brain to refocus after shifting from one task to the next. Check your email, glance at a text, and you'll pay for what's called a “switch effect.”“We've fallen for a mass delusion that our brains can multi-task. They can't,” author Johann Hari found out in researching his latest book. We're paying a price for our stolen ability to focus and maybe that's one of the reasons we're falling for autocrats and punting on solving the world's grievous problems.Can we spare a few minutes to focus on Luddites? Read people's historian Peter Linebaugh, or Jacobin writer, Peter Frase; check out a Smithsonian Magazine's feature by Clive Thompson -- and you'll find that Luddites weren't backward thinking thugs, but rather, skilled craftspeople whose lives were about to be wrecked.Textile cutters, spinners and weavers, before factories came along, those British textile workers enjoyed a pretty good life. Working from home, they had a certain amount of autonomy over their lives. The price for their products was set and published. They could work as much or as little as liked. Come the early 1800s – war and recession - and machines and factories threatened all of that. The Luddites – a made up name - didn't start by breaking machines. They started by making demands of the factory owners to phase in the technology slowly. Some proposed a tax on textiles to fund worker pensions. They called for government regulation. Relief from the harms and a fair share of the profits from progress. It was only when they were denied all of that that they started breaking stuff up. Today, the big U.S. social media companies are facing lawsuits. On January 6th, Seattle Public Schools sued TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, SnapChat, and YouTube for their negative impact on students' mental and emotional health. The U.S. Supreme Court is scheduled to hear arguments next month over the protections the tech industry enjoys under law when their algorithms intentionally push potentially harmful content for profit. What would breaking the machines look like in our time? I don't know. But if Hari's right, it's not just the quality of our lives that's in danger. It's the state of our minds that's at stake. You can hear this week's show, via this podcast feed, with Johann Hari or catch Laura's full uncut conversation that includes, Noam Chomsky, the subject of his next book -- a man with no problem with focus it seems -- through a patreon subscription to theLFShow 

Over the past several years, our next guest's small manufacturing company has continued to win awards and recognition for their innovations and growth, most recently the 2022 Emerging Manufacturer of the Year award from the South Carolina Manufacturing Extension Partnership. Mike Switzer interviews Donna Brin, president and CEO of bFIVE40 in Little River, SC.

Tessa Callaghan is the CEO and co-founder of Keel Labs, makers of a seaweed-based yarn they call Kelsun.  In case you didn't know, the textile and fashion industries are a mess, and they contribute enormous amounts of waste to our planet. Tessa and her co-founders set out to create a fully functional yarn with a significantly lower environmental footprint than conventional fibers. They're harnessing a biopolymer from kelp to achieve this, and kelp is one of the most regenerative organisms on our planet.  They've raised tens of millions in funding for their concept, and I'm excited to see what comes next. Here's Tessa Callaghan of Keel Labs.

NC State University Industry Expansion Solutions' (IES) North Carolina Defense Manufacturing Community Support Program (NC DMCSP), creates opportunities for smart textile innovators.  As our lives become ever connected through smart phones, tablets and other devices, the way we interact has changed dramatically and that even applies to textiles. Textiles come in a wide variety of forms, from clothing to bedding to household items. Smart textiles include the next generation of wearable technologies. They combine textile design with advanced sensing capabilities. This new class of materials promises to revolutionize the future of wearable computing. In 2021, the Department of Defense's (DoD) Office of Local Defense Community Cooperation (OLDCC) awarded North Carolina State University IES a grant under the Defense Manufacturing Community Support Program (DMCSP). The DMCSP is designed to support long-term community investments that strengthen national security innovation and expand the capabilities of the defense manufacturing industrial ecosystem. The program was created to recognize communities that demonstrate best practices in attracting and expanding defense manufacturing by bringing together key local stakeholders and using long-term planning that integrates targeted public and private investments across a community's entire defense industrial ecosystem. In this episode of Clocking In Phil Mintz sits down with Dr. William Reynolds and Dr. Casey Boutwell - two participants in the NC DMCSP sponsored propeller project looking to market their breakthrough smart textile technology.  Founded in 2017, Onda Vision Technologies (OVT) is a North Carolina State University startup company.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Think wider about the root causes of progress, published by jasoncrawford on December 21, 2022 on LessWrong. Too much discussion of the Industrial Revolution is myopic, focused narrowly on a few highlights such as steam and coal. The IR was part of broader trends that are wider in scope and longer in time than its traditional definition encompasses. To understand anything, it is crucial to get the correct scope for the phenomenon in question. Here are some ways in which we have to widen our focus in order to see the big picture. Wider than coal and steam Some explanations of the IR focus on steam engines, and especially on the coal that fueled them. Economist Robert Allen, for instance, has one of the best-researched and most convincing arguments for cheap coal as a requirement for the development of steam power. A weak version of this claim, such as “coal was a crucial factor in the IR,” is certainly true. But sometimes a much stronger claim is made, to the effect that the IR couldn't have happened without abundant, accessible coal, and that this is the main factor explaining why it happened in Europe and especially in Britain. Or more broadly, that all of material progress is driven by fossil fuels (with the implication that once we are, sooner or later, forced to transition away from fossil fuels—whether by geology, economics, or politics—growth will inevitably slow). But much of the early IR wasn't dependent on steam power: Textile machinery, such as Arkwright's spinning machines, were originally powered by water. Henry Maudslay's earliest machine tools were made to manufacture locks; another key application of machine tools was guns with interchangeable parts. This was not motivated by steam power. Improvements in factory organization, such as the arrangement of Wedgwood's pottery manufacturing operation, were management techniques, independent of power sources. The reaper was pulled by horses—even after the development of steam power, because steam tractors were too heavy for use in fields. Even stationary agricultural machines such as for threshing or winnowing were often muscle-powered. You could argue that all of these inventions would have reached a plateau and would not have had as much economic impact without eventually being hooked up to steam or gas engines. But the fact remains that they were initially powered by water or muscle, and they were economically useful in those first incarnations, often achieving 10x or more gains in productivity. They didn't need coal or gas for that, nor were they invented in anticipation that such power would soon be available. So either it was an amazing coincidence that all of this mechanical invention was going on at the same time—or there was some wider, underlying trend. Wider than industry Further, the IR itself only represents a subset of the broader technical innovations that were going on in this period. Here are a few key things that aren't considered “industrial” and so are often left out of the story of the IR: Improvements to agriculture other than mechanization: for instance, new crop rotations Improvements to maritime navigation, such as the marine chronometer that helped solve the longitude problem Immunization techniques against smallpox: inoculation and later vaccination To me, the fact of all these inventions happening in roughly the same time period indicates a general acceleration of progress during this time, reflecting some deep cause, not a simple playing out of the consequences of one specific resource or invention. Wider than invention In many areas, incremental improvements were being made even before the major inventions that make the history books: Roads and canals were improved in the 17th and 18th centuries, speeding up transportation even before railroads Experiments by engineers like John ...

In this episode, we speak with Jess Boeke. Jess and her twin sister Sarah Pottle, are the co-founders of Rust Belt Fibershed and are growing a bioregional textile community within a 250-mile radius of Cleveland. Imagine sourcing your clothing from a regional fibershed where local fiber farmers, workers, and artisans produce natural clothing that originates from the soil and can return to the soil. This is the vision of Rust Belt Fibershed. Jess and Sarah are helping connect us with our clothing the way farmers' markets connect us with our food. It starts with systems thinking and education, then the community magic follows. Listen and hear about alpacas, hemp, flax, natural dyes, microplastics, and what's needed to bring natural textile production into our fibershed and the many ways to engage with this regenerative community.   GuestJess Boeke, Co-Founder and  Executive Director, Rust Belt Fibershed ResourcesRust Belt Fibershed website Community Forum - get plugged into the Rust Belt Fibershed communityDrift Lab Dye Studio - natural and botanical dyeing projectRegenerative Ed - regenerative thinking for our educational systemReading: Fibershed: Growing a Movement of Farmers, Fashion Activists, and Makers for a New Textile EconomyFollow us: https://www.facebook.com/ecospeaksclehttps://www.instagram.com/ecospeakscleContact us:hello@ecospeakscle.com

Camaïeu, le géant du textile du nord de la France, a été placé en liquidation judiciaire fin septembre 2022. 2 600 emplois ont été supprimés et 500 boutiques ont fermé. Après une première vente aux enchères des stocks, ce mercredi 7 novembre, ce sont les actifs immatériels de la marque qui ont été vendus aux enchères. Si la fermeture de l'enseigne a de graves conséquences sur l'emploi en France, elle en a également sur l'ensemble de la filière et notamment toute la chaîne manufacturière au Maroc, qui était un grand fournisseur de la marque. L'annonce de la liquidation judiciaire est la douche froide pour Si Mohamed Boubouh, grand industriel de Tanger à la tête de Vita Couture. « Nous n'avons pas de fonds de roulement pour acheter de tissu et tout ça, ça impacte directement sur les chaînes de couture. Avant, on avait 800 personnes et maintenant, on se retrouve pratiquement avec un peu plus que la moitié, dans les 460. Camaïeu représentait avant à peu près entre 38 jusqu'à 40% de ma capacité. Donc, c'était vraiment un client important pour nous. » Un coup d'autant plus dur que l'entreprise de Si Mohamed Boubou ne faisait pas de la simple sous-traitance pour Camaïeu : « Plus que ça, c'est que nous avons travaillé avec Camaïeu en produit fini. C'est-à-dire que nous achetons du tissu, on fait la coupe, la confection et tout et la livraison du produit fini jusqu'en France. Et là, vous pouvez imaginer que le coût est vraiment supérieur à la sous-traitance. Et là, bien sûr, l'ardoise était beaucoup plus douloureuse que si jamais on travaille en sous-traitance. Et le problème majeur que nous avons eu, c'est que nous avons fait confiance parce qu'ils ont promis une chose, et puis après, on se retrouve vraiment avec aucune garantie et pratiquement 2 millions d'euros suspendus ». Plus de 500 emplois supprimés Des stocks sur les bras, des frais de douanes en attente, pas de fonds de roulement pour honorer de nouvelles commandes… Face à la liquidation judiciaire de Camaïeu, les défis sont grands pour les industries du textile au Maroc. Ismail Lemtouni d'Imprima Platform Morocco fait le bilan. « On essaie de s'en sortir tant bien que mal. Cette fermeture nous a laissés avec des impayés et un stock marchandise qu'on n'a pas pu exporter et qui s'élève à un peu plus de 2 millions d'euros. Mais mis à part cela, si vous voulez le business avec Camaïeu représentait plus ou moins 7 à 8 millions d'euros par an, ce qui représente en termes d'emploi dans les 500 à 600 emplois dont on a dû se séparer. Donc, vous pouvez imaginer que ça n'a pas été évident. » Pour Ismail Lemtouni, la marge de manœuvre est serrée... « Si on veut aller de l'avant et qu'on veut continuer, il faut absolument remplacer ce chiffre d'affaires. Moi, je me dis qu'on doit le remplacer dans les 2-3 mois à venir, sinon on risque de licencier bien plus de personnes que ce que l'on imaginait. » Aujourd'hui, c'est un goût d'amertume qui prédomine du côté de ces professionnels du secteur. Ils n'attendent que peu de choses des actions en justice.

How does craft deepen your understanding of your history, your community, or yourself? And how can predominantly-white craft spaces better welcome diverse experiences?Textile artist and printmaker Jen Hewett threads the needle on these questions in her latest book, This Long Thread: Women of Color on Craft, Community and Connection. The book includes interviews with 19 fiber artists, and surveys hundreds of creators of color, all of whom draw on their relationship with making. This hour, we hear from Hewett – and briefly, from writer Mia Nakaji Monnier. Plus, Susi Ryan is an author and social justice activist from Connecticut who co-founded the quilt guild, Sisters In Stitches Joined By The Cloth. Ryan recently wrote a piece about how craft connects her to her ancestors, titled "Cloth Has Given Me A Voice," for Mass Humanities' We, Too, Are America series. She says, "Cloth has given me a voice to recall the memory of my enslaved ancestors. The quilts that I create visually depict and document in cloth the life journeys of my family, my ancestors, and the many others who lived through the African diaspora," Ryan writes. "The stories my quilts tell allow me to ease into uncomfortable conversations about such critical issues as racism, social and medical justice, prison reform, African American history and literature, farm, food and housing sustainability, climate change, women's rights, religion, politics, and human trafficking, that sadly still exists today."

Elmar Stroomer is the founder of Africa Collect Textiles (ACT). Africa Collect Textiles does exactly that – collecting used textiles across Africa, for reuse, recycling and upcycling. Elmar Stroomer has a strong background in the circular economy and design, and lived in Kenya and Uganda between 2012 and 2017 to get Africa Collect Textiles up and running. Now, Elmar is working full time on the expansion of ACT in Kenya and Nigeria. ACT aims to develop solutions to end the textile waste issues across Africa. It distributes free and affordable clothing to underprivileged communities, and currently has over 40 collection points in Nairobi and Lagos for used textiles. It provides employment to more than 50 people, who help collect, sort and upcycle fashion waste, used uniforms and off-cuts, creating products such as rugs, backpacks, toys and much more. On top of this, for every kilogram of used textiles it recycles, Africa Collect Textiles (ACT) donates 10 Kenyan shillings to charity.
