This book approaches luthiery not as a craft limited to the past, but as an evolving practice of thought and production. It maintains a distance from both nostalgic narratives that romanticise manual labour and reductionist approaches that instrumentalise technology. Instead, it makes visible the intersection of intuition and algorithm, body and data, local knowledge and global networks. The concepts of “post-craftsmanship” and “computational luthiery” are positioned throughout the book not merely as technical trends, but as intellectual fields that renegotiate the meaning of production. Digital modelling, acoustic simulation, open-source culture, and artificial intelligence are evaluated not merely as technological elements that replace craftsmanship, but as possibilities that transform and expand it. This work redefines the luthier subject, moving it beyond a figure defined solely by repetitive motor movements of the hand, and instead presents it as a thinking, questioning, calculating, and sharing actor in production. The future of luthiery is rebuilt in this book as a conceptual field, with instrument making being removed from being a purely objective production activity and invited to be reconsidered as an ethical, epistemic, and cultural field of action.
