Design Capitalia + Peer-production generation + Radical Co-creation


Description

Design Capitalia – An Open Source framework for co-futuring

Design Capitalia is an Open Source thinking tool prototype (a tangible and/or digital framework) of over 30 different ‘capitals’ aimed at nurturing alternative economic, social, human, political and environmental opportunities from poly-disciplinary perspectives. Presented by Alastair Fuad-Luke, Aalto University, Finland.

This session will be continued in the workshop Design Capitalia – An Open Source framework for co-futuring (19/09/2012, 16:00:00 h at MAKE meeting room 1).

Emerging Peer-production generation - who, what and why

This presentation describes a peer-production movement, the hackerspace movement, its members and values. Building on previous work on ‘fabbing’, two different sets of results are presented: (1) empirical observations from a longitudinal study of hackerspace participants; and (2) a theoretical description of hacker generations as a larger context in which peer-production can be located. Presented by Jarkko Moilanen, Want3D LLC / University of Tampere, Finland.

Radical Co-creation - Emerging Modes for Open and Critical Design

The presentation describes how collaboration and open knowledge enable emerging modes of radical co-creation, developing transformative solutions and strategies to tackle the challenges of our times. We will discuss the models for open and collaborative process with multiple entry points for participation and the types of open knowledge and understanding required for radical co-creation and critical design. Presented by Ville Tikka.
