Com potser ja saps, estem organitzant unes jornades sobre el fenomen "Digital DIY". Tenim la sort de comptar amb l'equip internacional d'investigadors del projecte europeu Digital DIY i amb una serie de ponents locals molt potents.
Wouter Tebbens has co-lead the "Digital Commons in a "glocal" world" panel of the Regional European Conference of the International Association of the Commons in Bern, Switzerland.
This project was conducted in two schools by the P2P Lab (a research hub focusing on open source technology and the commons) in the city of Ioannina, Greece. Students experimented with 3D design and created objects with features that would enable blind people to use them. Then using an open source 3D printer the odjects were manufactured. The designs were also made available under creative commons licenses.
