As an ex embroiderer, I am hypnotised by your work. Sie sind nicht kömisch!
I too love the advantages of new technology, but I also believe we should take arts on with us - it is what civilises us.
I don't feel that toilets are an indicator of civilisation. Especially when we use 9 litres of potable water each time we go, and many people do not have acces to potable water or a toilet.
