Congratulations to Atar Brosh on the publication of his new article

Congratulations to Atar Brosh  from the Dan Department of Inclusive Industrial Design on the publication of his new article, “How, in a Wonderful World, Can One Maintain a Granite Motorcycle with 500 Hammers: On Total-Brutal Design,” in Ma’ale — A Journal of Criticism.

The article offers a conceptual journey through five books, using them to examine how reading literature and philosophy cultivates a professional outlook. It emphasizes the importance of such reading in the academic education of graduates who possess judgment, responsibility, and an independent voice—going beyond the acquisition of tools and skills.

From this discussion, the article formulates the idea of “total-brutal design”—an approach that does not settle for imagery or appearances, but instead seeks to understand how things work, what holds them together, how they change over time, and what kind of relationship they create between people and the world.
