Culkin has famously stated, “We shape our tools and thereafter our tools shape us.” This idea, that the tools we choose to use are extensions of our selves, runs throughout this whole issue. Issue Ten is a milestone for M&T, and we couldn’t be more proud to bring you this collection of articles. Let us not forget that it is through discipline and practice in a craft tradition that we establish a give-and-take relationship with our tools. Just as we can modify them to meet our creative ends, they in turn frame and shape the way we see the world.
