Miranda July is a performance artist most known for her film "You, Me and Everyone We Know". Her work is filled with charming everyday moments and events in life. One of her projects is learning to love you more, a website with assignments that are completed by anyone and reported on the site. An assignment like "Feel the news" might result in a photo of someone brushing their teeth.
Her most recent video "How to Make a Button", could probably also be titled "DIY: why bother?". DIY often runs the risk of veering into the realm of technical virtuosity for its own sake, without practical use or aesthetic concern. In a cultural revival of making things, its nice to see how things are not made.
