Marc Schuran, born 1989 in Vienna.
Through the progression of economic globalization, numerous production chains have been outsourced, fully digitized and incorporated into partly obscure production models. There are no comprehensively dominant movements that could replace the current model, nevertheless patterns are emerging, that indicate a rethinking in certain areas. These niche sectors operate on the edges of the current system and tend to conflict with it. Even though the fields of immaterial creation seem to represent an increasingly important aspect, they are still bound to the existing system in order to be viable. The aim of this work is to investigate the participating actors and the significance of their outbreaks from the regulated norms.
He is also a 'brother' to the https://cartbrothers.at, who are working on the https://www.wood-e.at/ project, a constructed wooden car powered solely by solar cells.
Prior to his studies, Marc worked for several years as a car mechatronic, specialized in the field of system diagnostics. He studied Manual and Material Culture at the New Design University in St.Pölten and after graduation he started his own business as a designer and freelance artist.

The intertwining of the blank
There are interwoven networks, hard to grasp, consisting of analog and digital, manual and automatic, as well as material
and immaterial fibers, that create products that reflect the expectations of our own lives. These areas are not always balanced
and can lead to tension and distortion within these structures. Therefore new connections are formed, which must prove their
stability over time. In the midst of ecological and economic norms a clear contrast between fast-moving production and a deeper
examination of creative processes is observed. It is important to re-analyze the continual controversy between art and production,
in this case between action and production, using interdisciplinary methods. Members of the senate:
