The Free Knowledge Institute will give a talk at the Swatantra 2017 Conference in Trivandrum, India, about Digital DIY and other proposals and projects about digital distributed manufacturing and social innovation. Talk abstracts and other details are here.
Do It Yourself – DIY – happens when people and communities just go ahead and make something for themselves, without waiting for a professional or for permission. Digital DIY is the huge boost to this activity – and the associated ‘can do’ mindset – facilitated by digital technologies, through the sharing of designs, tools, support, and inspiration.
