Masterclass the Civic Economy
From the 17th to the 21st of november 2014 a masterclass took place at The Eiland van Brienenoord. The project took place in collaboration with Maurice Specht.
Part of the Masterclass were the Doubters inc.[1] They kept themselves busy with the value of doubt: twijfel.
Doubters inc.
Doubters inc. is gevormd tijdens de masterclass The Civic Economy en kwam samen op het eiland van Brienenoord.
I doubt about....
"For me, my designership through the years has been and will always be full of doubt. It’s all about making decisions and if you would know everything, then there would be nothing new to learn. So when i’m working on a project and i have doubt, it simply means there’s things i don’t know yet. A moment wich is very exciting to me; I’m going to learn something new. This can be knowledge, skill or often i need new visual input that is inspiring. Most of the time i solve this myself by doing research, but sometimes it helps speaking to someone that you trust and who i thing is capable of making my doubt disappear; In the past teachers, fellow student/designers and supervisors have been the ones for me.
I never felt that there wasn’t any room for my doubts. The academy and my internship have always very supportive in that aspect. Therefore i do not associate doubt with a negative feeling and that’s why for me it’s not an issue. Maybe there’s no room for doubt in the place i’m living in the future, a place beyond the academy. A time where i might need the island of doubt."
I doubt about....
"At the moment i’m doubting about my graduation internship. My interest goes out to acoustics, but they also go out to architecture and sustainability. A combination of these would be awesome, but i haven’t found an internship that contains these three interests. And if i won’t, then in which one will i be able to excel the most? With what interest fits what partner and supervisor? Will this result in a new experience? Or will it be the same path i’ve already went down for a thousand times? I just don’t know yet."
I doubt about....
"The doubt of wether you make intuitive or rational decisions. Society teaches us to make rational ones, some of these are even expected of us. Because of this we get more disconnected from our feelings, which is bad because for me most of our best choices come from the hearth. I doubt about wether i should listen to my hearth, my first thought, my feeling or my intuition. Or should i make rational choices with the knowledge i have. For me this is a choice between certainty or happiness."

"In the past i was doubting about everything, which made me very vulnerable, insecure and frustrated; This made me indecisive, which i was very aware of as a child. This made me sad. Within my teenage years things were a little less hard, because i new a little more about what i wanted in life. I couldn’t explain it though, but at least i was making decisions following my intuition. Since i got to know myself better, a lot of my daily life doubts slowly disappeared.
The only thing is that the doubts that remain are a lot deeper: doubts about the status-quo, mass corporations, economy, politics, the nutrition industry, the medication industry, banks, housing associations, and so fort.
These organizations are too big for me to onderstand and therefore i don’t trust them. I doubt if they can continue this big or that we should continue on a more human scale. That there should arise new collectives built on trust, love and sharing; So we can continue with less doubt about things that are too big to understand, so there is more room for are small daily doubts."
I doubt about....
vroeger twijfelde ik aan alles, en dat maakte me erg kwetsbaar. onzeker en gefrustreerd was ik vooral, want niks kon ik gewoon eens besluiten. keuzes maken, gadver neeeee. als kind was ik er zeer bewust van en daardoor verdrietig. als puber was het ook niet makkelijk maar wist ik al iets beter wat ik wilde, ik kon het alleen niet echt verklaren, maarja who cared? gewoon je intuitie volgen kind. sinds ik mezelf echt beter ben gaan kennen ken ik geen twijfels meer in de dagelijkse dingen, maar de twijfels die ik nog heb gaan daardoor wel dieper. 1 zo'n twijfel is die in de gevestigde orde, de grote massa corporaties. de economie, de politiek, de voedingsmiddelen industrie, de medicijnindustrie, banken, woningcoöperaties. ze zijn allemaal zo groot. en ik voel me zo klein ik vertrouw dat zooitje gewoon niet zo. ik wil het dichter bij me, binnen een bereik dat ik snap, en kan overzien. ik twijfel daarom of het nog langer zo groot kan. of het we niet gewoon het menselijke weer toe moeten laten, dat het ons goeds zal brengen. dat collectieven weer worden gebouwd op vertrouwen, liefde, ruilen & een vertrouwelijk collectief. dan hoeven we met z'n alle minder te twijfelen over de grote dingen, en ons weer overgeven aan de dagelijkse gewone twijfels."
I doubt about....
Ik Twijfel, Waar de wereldreis naartoe gaat na deze studie. Er zijn zoveel plekken in de wereld die ik nog wil zien en avonturen die ik wil beleven. De twijfels gaan ook over of ik alleen zou gaan of toch opzoek moet naar een reisgenoot aangezien ik twijfel of ik wel zo goed ben in alleen zijn. Wil ik tijdens mijn reis vrijwilligers werk gaan doen of moet ik dat toch achterwegen laten omdat er twijfels in nieuws kwamen over hoe goed dat werk nou daadwerkelijk voor de mensen is.
I doubt about....
Twijfel is gebrek aan vertrouwen, vertrouwen kun je opbouwen. Gebrek in vertrouwen is te overwinnen. Vertrouwen in jezelf, vertrouwen in een ander, vertrouwen in liefde, vertrouwen in zoveel dingen. Ik zou willen dat ik 100% vertrouwen had in alles, dan hoefde ik nooit meer te twijfelen. Maar ik vertrouw om te twijfelen.
