Alternate names

this workspace was moved from the main talk page at Tree shaping, because it is large and was forcing too-tight archiving of the talkpage itself. It consists of extensive and exhaustive research into the many citations, some found valid, some not, supporting the use of various alternative names for arborsculpture.

Other names for tree shaping include: ref cite web|url=http://www.treehugger.com/files/2006/12/slow_furniture.php |title=treehugger.com ref ref cite web|url=http://maps.google.com.au/maps?hl=en&q=http://maps.google.com/maps/ms%3Fie%3DUTF8%26hl%3Dde%26t%3Dh%26oe%3DUTF8%26msa%3D0%26msid%3D108286284188878516638.00045c6a44607715cc529%26output%3Dkml&um=1&ie=UTF-8&source=websearch |title= Google map of shaped trees }}ref

  • arborsculpture/arborsculptor
"Arborsculpture is a method of bending and grafting shoots to create useful and eye-catching structures."[1]
"Grafting to create unusual growth forms in a practice called arborsculpture involves intertwining and grafting together the stems of two or more plants in order to create domes, chairs, ladders, and other fanciful sculptures." and "Fig. 9.2. Arborsculpture of Alex Erlandson’s Tree Circus made in the 1940s."[2]
"We also plan to demonstrate arborsculpture, which is a unique method of bending and grafting shoots to form unusual designs and structures. We plan to create a fruit tree chair, a three-sided ladder to make the high fruit more accessible, a gazebo, fences, and other structures.[3]
In an industry newsletter article titled Arbor Sculpture, "A leading arborsculptor is American Richard Reames, who manages Arborsmith Studios in Oregon-..." and (re:Aichi)>"Also exhibited at this event were the Grown up Stools of the English arborsculptor, Dr. Cattle, pictured below."[4]

Why is this magazine article a questionable source? Duff (talk) 19:54, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Aha. It refers for our alternate names. Welp, gotta add that. Bad link too, fixing. [1]. Anybody feel free to ring in here...is this a questionable source because it is promotional in nature or for some other reason? I'll hit up RSN too.Duff (talk) 04:09, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
This article was submitted by Richard Reames to Victorian Woodworkers Association newsleter's editor as a marketing tactic to brand Arborsculpture across our and Dr Chris Cattle's work and link back to himself. Blackash have a chat 13:57, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That is an unsourced claim, which I am not sure would be relevant anyway, as it could be claimed about nearly everything anyone has ever written for a magazine on any topic. The article does not show any byline, and on that basis it appears to have been written by editorial staff @ the paper; absent some other reliable indication to the contrary. Still standing by for comments from
WP:RSN, submitted request @ 15:00, June 6, 2010 re: use at all five points cited in the article, including the citation in Alternate names for the use of (that word) in the generic sense as a name for the craft, crafters, etc. Duff (talk) 00:44, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply

We didn't get a response on this request at RSN, so with counsel from User:Peregrine Fisher, I've relisted it there WP:Reliable sources/Noticeboard#The Cutting Edge: Victorian Woodworkers Association Newsletter in a slightly abbreviated form, as of 9:29 am PST on Monday June 21, 2010, and we await some comments once more. I have also re-fixed the link to the citation, back to a re-found pdf file instead of the flash file, as I was having trouble opening the swf. Duff (talk) 16:34, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Here are the responses to the 2nd request, also viewable now at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 67#The Cutting Edge: Victorian Woodworkers Association Newsletter:

Well, it's a newsletter, and there does seem to be an editor of some sort. I couldn't figure out who the author is. I would say it's not reliable for

WP:BLP info or other controversial info, but it might be OK for basic woodworking info. It would be good to know the author, and whether they've been published elsewhere, or if they're an expert in the field. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 16:58, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply

I think you can safely source the first statement to [2]. Reames own site is probably the best source for bio information, including that he runs the nursery etc. Elen of the Roads (talk) 21:19, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The quote from Cattle can also be sourced to Cattle's own website [3]. This is a reliable source of information on things said by Cattle - the newsletter is clearly just paraphrasing (a little) from the grown-furniture website.Elen of the Roads (talk) 21:21, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
However, nowhere on Cattle's website does he describe what he does as arborisculpture, nor does he describe himself as an arborisculptor, so I'd be wary of using the newsletter as a source - since other sources seem to contradict it. Hope this helps. Elen of the Roads (talk) 21:24, 21 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I will do the best I can to integrate these suggestions effectively. Duff (talk) 10:45, 27 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
FYI, Cattle's web site previously referred to those who practice the craft as ['arborsculptors'] Cattle changed his page, for unknown reasons, shortly after it was first used as support for arborsculpture. Slowart (talk) 15:49, 20 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Arborsculpture: Horticultural Art Reliable source".

I expanded this citation to a full cite-periodical listing and also cited it elsewhere in the article, where appropriate. It refers to both Reames' and Erlandson's works as arborsculpture, so it's a good ref in support of arborsculpture as a generic name for the craft. Duff (talk) 17:14, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I noted the large file on the citation and cited it elsewhere in the article, where appropriate. It refers to Erlandson's works as arborsculpture, so it's a good ref in support of arborsculpture as a generic name for the craft. Duff (talk) 17:14, 9 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Golan, Ezekiel, "Method and a kit for shaping a portion of a woody plant into a desired form", US A method of shaping a portion of a woody plant into a desired form is provided. The method is effected by providing a root of a woody plant, shaping the root into the desired form and culturing the root under conditions suitable for secondary thickening of the root. 7328532, issued 2008-02-12Questionable Source I hope to find some info on using patents as sources.

Patents are primary sources. Are there any third-party reliable verifiable sources that refer to this patent? If not this ref is out, as are any aka's dependent on it. see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/For Fuel Freedom, Inc. "the argument that primary sources such as patents indicate notability is faulty" and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Boris Volfson"No reliable third-party sources......Finally, patent (granted and applied) aren't reliable sources either." Duff (talk) 19:54, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Further and more clear direction on this: Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard/Archive 10#Patent application as sources:"Patent applications, by themselves, represent absolutely nothing more that what the person who filed it claims to have invented. Patent offices do not require working prototypes, they no longer require models, and they don't review the design to make sure it makes sense. They're happy to take your money, and holding a patent doesn't actually mean anything until it's tested in court. So except when a patent has actually been reviewed an evaluated by independent experts, which does happen sometimes, it's no better than what the inventor posts on his personal blog" I removed this reference from the other names section and from the lead, as it is a primary source which can't be used to establish anything. However we have a problem in that it is the only reference we have for root shaping (besides the living root bridges), let alone aeroponic root shaping. I did some searching and came up dry, so for now I'm leaving the awkward "According to patent No. xxx" statement in, and sticking root shaping in the research box.

http://www.soton.ac.uk/~doctom/talks/botanical-engineering.pdf page 15 Reliable source

Agree, reliable source for the article, but biotecture is not supported as an aka reference for the topic of this page. "The branch of architecture that deals with living structures is called 'biotecture' and was pioneered by the German landscape architect Rudolf Doernach." is on page 15; that illustrates grown buildings, noting that "the old 'weaving' technique used to construct these living structures is called 'pleaching'," so that's a valid reference for pleaching as a technique for building far more than just hedgerows. Pages 21-26 deal with Cook/Northey & Cattle pieces, referring to them as 'grown furniture' and Erlandson's ladder tree, referring to it as 'grown ladder'. I placed another new alt name for grown furniture...see if that seems like an aka for the art/craft or not. Maybe there are sub-genera of arborsculpture as applied, such as biotecture=living architecture/buildings, arbors, fences, gazebos, domes, etc.; grown furniture=chairs, stools, tables, mirrors, etc; live wood art=purely artistic fanciful stuff?

::Sorry, Sherlock, just adding a touch of humor, breath. Your pal, Professor_Moriarty AKA Slowart (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 21:54, 2 June 2010 (UTC). [reply]

I didn't 'get the word'. Slowart did this citations work and a lot of it. His sig is at the bottom there, you'll note. Perhaps Moriarty is Reames' nickname? I don't know, but he's pretty obviously referring to the author, and has honestly assessed his own status as a newbie and the book as a questionable source. That's a non-issue. I did not say google it up. I said blog it up, and I was referring directly to your unsigned statement above (which I tagged with your username):"all media interviews and articles online that are based on this book also should not be used." and I was referring specifically to your voluminous blogging efforts to squash the use of the word arborsculpture. Or did you mean not used here at this article? Perhaps I misunderstood. If that's what you meant, where is the policy, chapter & verse, that states this? Keep in mind that any such policy would apply right across the board. Which citations specifically are you suggesting are "based on the book"? Duff (talk) 19:54, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Self-published, self-admitted non-expert. Should be ok to use for the Reames bio portion only but not elsewhere, and particularly not as a source for establishing arborsculpture as an aka for our topic, though there may well be other reliable sources.

Click the home link leads to museum front page. So the store is part of their web site. Blackash have a chat 14:54, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

::::No, this link is an event advertisement; it's a commercial website, not a museum website, and they are selling tickets to his lectures, this is not a reliable source. Furthermore, read the hype on the link, it directly contradicts the use of the reference to support the use of Botanic architecture as an aka for our article topic: Primack discovered Erlandon’s neglected and dying trees in 1977, shortly after completing his Masters thesis on ‘Botanic Architecture’. There is no reference here, even if it was a reliable source, to him using this term to describe Erlandson's work. On the contrary, it states clearly that he hadn't discovered Erlandson's work until after writing his thesis by that name. While there may well be some reliable and verifiable reference out there to him branding Erlandson's work with that name post-1977, this ref is out for the purpose of establishing botanic architecture as another name for the craft, except as proof he wrote a masters thesis called botanic architecture pre-1977. Anybody got a link to the thesis? Erlandson's work could not be in it, because he discovered Erlandson AFTER, but it might still be a potentially useful ref for the rest of the article, if determined relevant, reliable if verifiable. It might clarify whether or not his thesis and it's title has got anything to do with our topic at all.Duff (talk) 19:54, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Here again, get busy blogging away on that. 10 years later, same topic, much practice, not an expert? Who says he's not? O by the way, that's two instances in, gosh, an hour, of your misstating the publication dates of Reames' books. What's up with that? Reames1 HTGaChair is 1995, not 2005, and Reames2 ArborsculptureSFASP is 2005, not 2002. Please use the existing 2 ref names for correct citations to Reames' 2 books, with the rp template to indicate the page#, so that those sorts of misleading mistakes are eliminated, and please do not make up any more new ref names to describe these 2 books. Also please put your comments/research below each citation here and sign each of your posts with four tildes as usual/Thanks!.Duff (talk) 10:52, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The man himself, for a start. quote "Over the past 15 years I have developed the attitude that every tree I work on is an experiment or a learning opportunity. The inevitable mistakes become opportunities to advance the skills required to master the art". (An expert doesn't have inevitable mistakes, mistakes yes, but not ones that keep reappearing.) book Arborsculpture page 154. or when he states about our work, quote "I had no idea that such complicated detailed balanced work was possible." Just because you do something for 10 years doesn't mean you are expert. More to the point who says he is? (Can't use interviews based on the books either.) Please note the book has copyright 2002 First printing is April 2005. And to confuse matters more Richard had done a revised edition of his book Arborsculpture solutions for a small planet. So maybe we need 3 ref names so people can find the right book. Will do with signing. Blackash have a chat 15:15, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Experts make mistakes, it's inevitable. Everyone makes mistakes, it's inevitable. You make mistakes and so do I. Mistakes are inevitable. That's how people learn. Every day with trees is a day to learn, even for experts. And where does it say the same mistakes keep reappearing? Just because he was unaware of the quality of Peter's work and complimented him on it doesn't make him not an expert. I too, have been completely isolated from your work until participation on this article. It's also not any discredit to expertise to be honest enough to admit, especially in print, that one is fallible. On the contrary, it's a sign of maturity. That sounds a lot like original research and it's a spurious argument. It can certainly be argued that Reames was an expert by 2005 at the publication of his 2nd book in 2005. By that time the term arborsculpture was in widespread usage and not any longer considered a neologism as has been repeatedly alleged. Now we are here in 2010 and he's presumably learned from even more mistakes, like all of us, and is likely even more expert now than in 2005. The nouns arborsculpture and arborsculptor are even more deeply entrenched in the cultural vernacular, efforts to quash notwithstanding. There aren't that many living experts in this craft, and he's clearly one of 'em. So is Peter Cook, I'd say, and some others. Even if there was a reason to exclude this text as a reference for using the term as an aka (and I'm not sure there is), there are LOTS more third party sources that use it as the primary name for our topic.Duff (talk) 19:54, 2 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The question is who states Richard Reames is an expert? Where are the peer reviews of his shaped trees? (Can't use interviews based on the books either.) Blackash have a chat 15:06, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Can someone else ring in please, on whether that is the question, and if it is, what is the best way to answer it conclusively without wasting any time? Duff (talk) 00:58, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The guideline at
WP:SPS#Self-published sources (online and paper) guides thusly: Self-published material may, in some circumstances, be acceptable when produced by an established expert on the topic of the article whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable third-party publications. If this is indeed the appropriate standard, what are we looking for to establish that the standard has been met or hasn't? Does someone have to evaluate his trees, for heaven's sake? Wouldn't that be original research? Duff (talk) 01:09, 8 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Reading

WP:SELFQUEST
Quote: Self-published and questionable sources may be used as sources of information about themselves, usually in articles about themselves or their activities, without the requirement in the case of self-published sources that they be published experts in the field, so long as:

  1. the material is not unduly self-serving;
  2. it does not involve claims about third parties;
  3. it does not involve claims about events not directly related to the source;
  4. there is no reasonable doubt as to its authenticity;
  5. the article is not based primarily on such sources.

Now I would think a self published book that talks about the author's methods of shaping trees and is not making over the top claims on the behalf of other people could be used as a citation as part of larger article. Blackash have a chat 07:39, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

And that would be your own editorial point of view, which you must shed to edit Wikipedia articles. In retrospect, it's clear why you expressed that here: to attempt to find muster for your case for establishing both superior (purportedly yours) and inferior (purportedly Reames') 'Methods' for which there were no reliable sources to document citations of any such 'Methods'.duff 04:21, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Really great that you went through all these motions in January 2011, but I never made any such claim, and your claim that I did so is another strawman argument that you used in this case to waste everyone's time at the Reliable Sources noticeboard. Cite this claim if you believe otherwise, but before you waste your time on that, PLEASE note up above in MY WORK, back before July of 2010, where this source (with the correct publication date of 2005, by the way, which yours is not) is clearly established as a Self-Published work (by all parties, I might add) until such time as it was determined one way or the other whether the author was an expert at the time of the work. That's what ought to have been pursued diligently. That question. This one had already been answered, and you had already agreed. Your editorial POV clouded your judgment and your second-guessing in this instance makes no sense at all. Bravo. duff 04:33, 11 June 2011 (UTC)[reply

The following material begins an unexpectedly divergent course of copying pieces and parts from several sections of text straight from an unreferenced and undated version of the article, with some notes by whichever editor made this edit or series of edits. It is not clear what the reason or purpose is for the change to the style of documentation of work below this point, so this is a place marker to help future navigators of this material (including this one) to make some sense of what makes no sense to this editor at this time.

The section below is so I know where I'm up to, in systematically checking the references for reliability at Tree shaping. As part of posting at the RsN they want to know what the reference used to cite. So easiest was to copy and past the main article and then delete what has been checked. I will get back to this but just not yet. Blackash have a chat 01:09, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Another Section

removing supports in as little as a year and following up with minimal pruning thereafter.[1] As little as one season of guiding growth might be enough to form a design, and then longer for the wood to grow and thicken to the desired size.

For example, a chair design might take 8 to 10 years to reach maturity[2] and might then either remain growing, as with the living Pooktre garden chair, or perhaps be harvested as a finished work, as with Krubsak's The Chair that Lived. Some component specimens may not grow or survive precisely as planned, so some pieces and even the designs themselves may require adjustment to accommodate the lost components. Taller architectural projects, such as Two Leg Tree by Axel Erlandson, may require 10 years of growth or more to accomplish even the first grafting.[citation needed] Eventually, they all die, since each living plant has a lifespan.

Techniques

The initial work of bending and securing in this way might be accomplished in an hour or perhaps in an afternoon.[3]

A practice with results similar to pruning is to more or less slowly kill a branch by girdling it, whether by simply scoring a branch or by removing a narrow band of bark,[4] thereby somewhat more controllably influencing the growth of the adjacent parent wood intended to remain in the finished design.

Aeroponic root culture is yet another technique that might be employed, allowing roots to remain flexible enough to be shaped to form ornamental or functional structures as they grow. According to US Patent No. 7,328,532,[5]
tree roots grown aeroponically stay "soft" and so can be trained to grow into desired shapes and forms. Living root bridges have exemplified this technique for several hundred years.

Species options] These wood-forming plants are known to inosculate naturally:

Chronology of notable crafters

War-Khasi people

..... They can take ten to fifteen years to become fully functional and are expected to last up to 600 years.[11][12]

John Krubsack

..... He had studied plant grafting and become a skilled found-wood furniture crafter.[13] The idea first came to him to grow his own chair during a weekend wood-hunting excursion with his son.

He started box elder seeds in 1903, selecting and planting either 28[13] or 32[14]

Axel Erlandson

.....In 1945, he moved his family and the best of his trees from Hilmar to Scotts Valley, California and in 1947, His work appeared in the column of

Baltimore, Maryland[16] and his Birch Loop tree is on permanent display at the Museum of Art and History in Santa Cruz, California
. Both of these are preserved dead specimens.

Arthur Wiechula

In 1926, he published Wachsende Häuser aus lebenden Bäumen entstehend (Developing Houses from Living Trees) in German.[17][1] In it, he gave detailed illustrated descriptions of houses grown from trees and described simple building techniques involving guided grafting together of live branches; including a system of v-shaped lateral cuts used to bend and curve individual trunks and branches in the direction of a design, with reaction wood soon closing the wounds to hold the curves.[18]

David Nash

Nearly 30 years later, the work was just taking on the domed form that he had planned for and intended when he first began.[19][20]

Dan Ladd

He shapes and grafts living woody plants, including their

Pittsburgh.[24][16]

Nirandr Boonnetr

The Bangkok Post dubbed him the father of Living Furniture.[25]

Peter Cook and Becky Northey

He had become inspired to grow a chair in 1987 after seeing three fig trees twisting together.[2][26]

Myrobalan Plum.[9][10] Examples of their functional artwork include a growing garden table, a harvested coffee table, hat stands, mirrors, and a gemstone neck piece. They also carve sculptures from trees[27]

Their work was published in the annual book series, Ripley's Believe It or Not.[28]

Richard Reames

Richard Reames is an American arborsculptor [29] based in Williams, Oregon, where he manages a nursery, botanical garden, and design studio collectively named Arborsmith Studios.[30][31] He was inspired by the works of Axel Erlandson,[32]: 16 [33] and began sculpting woody plants in 1991[34] or 1992.[35]

He envisions that living buildings would produce wood, fruit, and flowers to support their occupants and that live wood would grow around windows, doorways, plumbing, and electrical conduits; treating them all as inclusions by engulfing and incorporating them.[34][36] Reames served as International Coordinator of the Growing Village pavilion at the World Expo 2005 in Japan.[37] He currently lectures worldwide and teaches arborsculpture at the John C. Campbell Folk School.[37]

Christopher Cattle

Dr. Christopher Cattle is a retired furniture design professor from England.[38] He started his first planting of furniture in 1996.[citation needed] According to Cattle, he developed an idea to train and graft trees to grow into shapes, which came to him in the late 1970s,[39] in response to questions from students asking how to build furniture using less energy.[38] Using various species of trees and wooden jigs to shape them,[40] he has grown 15 three-legged stools to completion.[citation needed]

He aims to encourage as many people as possible to grow their own furniture,[39][16] and envisions that, Cattle calls his works grown stools[41] and grown furniture,[41] but also refers to them as grownup furniture, calling them "the result of mature thinking."[38]

Mr. Wu

who designs and crafts furniture in

Liaoning, China.[42][43] He has patented his technique of growing wooden chairs and as of 2005, had designed, grown, and harvested one chair, in 2004, Wu uses young elm trees,[44] which he says are pliant and do not break easily.[42] He also says that it takes him about five years to grow a tree chair.[43]

Artistic controversy]

Related art forms

Bonsai

but instead mainly for contemplation by viewers, like most fine art.[58] that would contrast with the true nature of bonsai.[59]

Espalier

Alternative names

Other names for tree shaping include:

In arts and literature

Live resprouting shoots emerge from either side of the tree stump seat to form a fancifully twined and pleached two-story-tall chair back.[65][66]

Before 1600, William Shakespeare mentions pleaching in Act 1, Scene 2 of Much Ado About Nothing.

Leonato's brother tells Leonato, "The Prince and Count Claudio, walking in a thick pleached alley in mine orchard, were thus much overheard by a man of mine..."
sanctuaries.[68][36]

In the late

Christian mystic and visionary Jakob Lorber published The Household of God. In it, he wrote about the wisdom of planting trees in a circle, because once grown together, the ring of trees would be a much better house than could be built.[69][36]
