Pilot survey: Digital DIY in Crafts and Agriculture

The goal of the DiDIY Project is to study the Digital Do-It-Yourself (Digital DIY or DiDIY) phenomenon, that is Do-It-Yourself design, manufacturing and usage of physical objects (but also music, and other non-material creative works) that is only possible thanks to computers, computer-controlled tools (e.g. 3D printers) and, often, open online platforms and communities such as < href="http://www.thingiverse.com/">Thingiverse, < href="https://www.wevolver.com/">Wevolver or < href="http://www.instructables.com/">Instructables.

Digital DIY creates new risks and opportunities in many areas, including the organization of work and businesses. For this reason, the DiDIY intends to study the level of knowledge and usage of Digital DIY in small and medium sized enterprises also in non high-tech sectors of the economy, starting with agriculture and crafts.

In this context, the DiDIY project has set up a SIMPLE, PILOT SURVEY, which is only meant as a first "field experiment" to help us prepare future surveys and data analysis procedures in the best possible way. But is an important experiment for us, and filling the survey only takes a few minutes, so... thank you in advance for filling the survey, and for spreading this invitation as much as you see fit!
