Weavers turned their anger to a then-revolutionary technology: destroying the equipment in the newly invented textile factories \u2013 the equipment that took their jobs, made wages plumet and worsened their working conditions. The movement swept across the country and the textile industry took a severe beating, as mills were burned, and production facilities closed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><br><\/p>\n<p>This historical event is now regarded as the first clear instance of \u2018Man versus Machine\u2019, with the term \u2018Luddite\u2019 still being used to refer to someone who is opposed to new technologies. Though the Luddites fought a just cause, their polarised views and destructive actions failed to get them what they wanted.<\/p>\n<p><br><\/p><p>Masjien [Machine] faces a similar challenge. Just like the textile industry in the 19th century, today\u2019s fashion industry is at a crossroads. And this time, the stakes are even higher. It\u2019s not \u2018just\u2019 about our jobs or working conditions; the very future of our planet is on the line.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing very well that history can teach us a thing or two, we dare to look back even further than the 19th century \u2013 casting a glance back at the Bronze and Iron Ages, when mankind flourished by embracing new inventions and technologies. It is our strong belief that the key to tackling today\u2019s challenges lies exactly in the match between industry and cutting-edge technology. Rather than opposing what\u2019s new or desperately trying to hold on to yesterday, we build a bridge, hold hands and step forward into the green age.&nbsp;<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-272289d elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"272289d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Masjien is an agency for fashion, sustainability and technology. \u00a0 \u00a0 At Masjien, we are revolutionising the fashion industry by challenging the status quo.
