Open Design & Hardware Network
Open Knowledge Foundation
2012-2017

I co-founded Open Design & Hardware with Massimo Menichinelli, Christian Villum, and Primavera De Filippi in collaboration with the Open Knowledge Foundation, RMIT Europe, Aalto University Media Lab and Danish Design Centre which was active from 2012-2017. Its members worked together across disciplines, from product design to architecture, and digital design to hardware development.  Projects included hosting the first-ever Open Design, Hardware and Fabrication track at the Open Knowledge Festival 2012 in Helsinki, releasing v0.1 of the new Open Design Definition on Github, launching a series of hands-on open design workshops across Europe, supporting the launch of the Public Domain Remix competition in France, and giving keynotes about open design practices at LibreGraphics 2013 Madrid and FREE CITY 2012 Tallinn.
