E-commerce is particularly innovative in India. Many new online trading fields have emerged for Indian crafts that provide much richer engagement than the standard retail environment. In some ways, they may seem to be reviving traditional elements of craft. This involves not on the kind of direct contact experienced in street markets, but also role of the object in story-telling.

This talk, presented as part of the Half-Baked Ideas series, explores the kinds of critical questions that need to be asked about craft e-commerce in India.
