version 2 of the fully functioning toolbox

1
The Fully Functioning Tool Box V2 Concept (Holdcroft,2015). Inspired by 'The Fully Functioning Person' (Rogers, 1961) and a conversation with Mairead Walsh about engineering in a coffee shop at Keele University. The Fully Functioning Toolbox encapsulates this idea that having the tools to facilitate a person's fully functioning state of being alone just isn't enough, and that there needs to be a sense of maintenance, to look after them and know where they are so that they don't get misplaced, lost or forgotten. Much like a surgeon would have all of their tools organised on a table before performing an operation even the ones they may not even use are present and respected.

TRANSCRIPT

The  Fully  Functioning  Tool  Box  V2  Concept  (Holdcroft,2015).

Inspired  by   'The  Fully  Functioning  Person'   (Rogers,  1961)  and  a  conversation  with  Mairead  Walsh  about  engineering  

in  a  coffee  shop  at  Keele  University.

The  Fully  Functioning  Toolbox  encapsulates  this   idea  that  having  the  tools  to  facilitate  a  person's  fully   functioning  state  of  being  alone   just  isn't  enough,  and  that  there  needs  to  be  a  sense  of  maintenance,  to  look  after  them  and  know  where  they  are  so  that  they  don't  get  

misplaced,   lost  or  forgotten.  Much   like  a  surgeon  would  have  all  of  their  tools  organised  on  a  table  before  performing  an  operation  even  the  ones  

they  may  not  even  use  are  present  and  respected.
