P2PValue Conference

 Amsterdam, September 1st to September 3rd, 2016

Tiberius Brastaviceanu was invited to present Sensorica, part of the Design Global, Manufacture Local session.

The “design global, manufacture local” (DGML) model builds on the conjunction of the digital commons (e.g. open knowledge and design) with desktop manufacturing and automation technologies (e.g. 3D printing and CNC machines). It describes the processes where design is developed, shared and improved as a global digital commons, whereas the actual customized manufacturing takes place locally. DGML could be a model of sustainable development which recognizes the limits and scarcities posed by finite resources and effectively organizes material activities accordingly.

Moderator: Michiel Schwarz. Speakers: Vasilis Niaros, Tiberius Brastaviceanu, Lisha Sterling.

OuiShare Drink MTL #4 - Retours sur POC21

October 28, Sensorica hosts OuiShare Drink. 

Eco-hacking the future

POC21 est une résidence d'innovateurs réunissant 100 "makers" venus des quatre coins du monde pour prototyper une société zéro carbone, zéro déchet. Pendant 5 semaines dans un château, leur mission a été d’inventer, en open source, 12 produits et solutions pour le climat et la transition écologique.

Le trailer du projet : https://vimeo.com/132919309

Les organisateurs seront à Montréal ce mercredi 28 octobre pour revenir sur l'aventure POC21 et envisager l'avenir après cette première édition brillamment réussie.

Une bonne occasion pour se rassembler, découvrir de quoi il s'agit, entendre les résultats après 5 semaines d'innovation, poser toutes les questions qui vous passeront par la tête et surtout se demander comment le Québec peut s'enrichir de cette expérience.

Comme d'habitude, le format de l'instant convivial qui suivra est potluck, alors venez partager!
