Designing 21st Century Standard Ware: The Cultural Heritage of Leach and the Potential Applications of Digital Technologies
No full textThis practice-based research investigates the potential applications of digital manufacturing technologies in the design and production of hand-made tableware at the Leach Pottery. The methodology for the research establishes an approach grounded in my previous experience as a maker that is informed by an open, experimental, emergent, and responsive framework based on Naturalistic Inquiry.
A critical contextual review describes the cultural heritage of Leach which, for the purposes of the research, is developed through the Leach Pottery as a significant site, the historical production of the iconic Leach Standard Ware and the contemporary production of Leach Tableware. This is followed by an examination of Potter’s Tools in the Leach production environment, and a review of makers’ digital ceramic practice.
The contextual review is followed by an explication of ‘standards’ presented through visual lineages of Standard Ware and Leach Tableware to define ‘standard’ at a design (macro) level, followed by an examination of how ‘standard’ operates at a making (micro level) level. This chapter presents new knowledge in relation to defining the visual field of Leach Pottery tableware production and its standards of design.
A chapter focussed on practice presents the outcomes and analysis of my engagement with digital manufacturing technologies which resulted in the development of new tools to support Leach Tableware production and the interrogation of Leach forms, in different mediums, which led to the creation of Digital-Analogue Leach forms. The practice culminated in the design and development of new 21st century Standard Ware: a range of 9 forms, called Echo of Leach, that were developed by myself using digital and analogue methods: the designs were realised by myself, the Leach Studio, and a further four makers. The outcomes of the research were presented in a three month exhibition at the Leach Pottery in 2013.
The conclusions of the research draw on the key points raised in the analysis of the practice and relate these to the approaches to making pottery that are highlighted in the cultural heritage of Leach in the contextual review. These are also discussed in relation to ways in which these findings could be taken forward into development of knowledge about Standard Ware, especially in a broader studio pottery context
Pantellerian ware a comprehensive archaeometric review.
No full textPantellerian ware is a Late Roman cooking ware whose production centre was established
on the island of Pantelleria by the pioneering research of Fulford and Peacock almost 20
years ago (Peacock 1982; Fulford and Peacock 1984). Archaeological and archaeometric
studies carried out by the authors of the present contribution during the past four years have
aimed to fully characterize this ceramic class. Recurrent ceramic forms, their distribution
over time and space, their petrographic characteristics and their chemical identity, as well
as possible raw materials and their technological properties, were considered. The present
paper is a comprehensive review of this archaeometric work and aims to establish a
‘reference group’. Using a representative number of samples of Pantellerian ware that were
recently discovered in the island through archaeological field surveys or surface and
submarine excavations, it was possible to characterize in detail the compositional variability
of this ware in terms of chemistry and petrography. Furthermore, the physical properties of
this ceramic type have been defined in order to better understand its performance
characteristics, mainly in response to induced thermal stress. In the meantime, the
experimental mixing and tempering of locally sampled raw materials have shed light on the
ancient manufacturing process and have led to an approximation of the original paste

No full textDanowhetaksa Simonsen, Ware & Archibald, new genus Diagnosis. Most easily distinguished from Whetwhetaksa by: 1, pterostigma length ca. 7 times width [ca. 10 times]; 2, dark fascia mid-wing, basal wing hyaline [colouration extends to wing base where known]; 3, origin of IR2 closer to nodus than to origin of R3-4 [closer to origin of R3-4], at least three crossveins between them [one]; 4, MP, CuA more widely separated distally [maximum ca. 10 cells at margin], not subparallel [maximum two cells, subparallel]. Type and included species. Type species, Danowhetaksa birgitteae n. sp. here designated; other included species, Danowhetaksa rusti n. sp. Etymology. The genus name is formed from the prefix ‘Dano-’ referring to Denmark, and the suffix ‘-whetaksa’ referring to the Whetwhetaksidae. Gender: feminine.Published as part of Simonsen, Thomas J., Archibald, S.
