Policies for Shared Innovation and Local Development
For some time now I’ve been making assumptions about what policies and changes the public administration should adopt in order to promote local development and long-term innovation.

The Revolution at Hand
The Revolution at hand— The fundamental moment in which design becomes a political tool has arrived. Whatever we choose to call it — P2P culture, peer production movement, open-P2P-design — will we be able to find new meaning cooperatively?

Interviewing Joe Justice from Team Wikispeed on the Future of Manufacturing (and Consumption)
Joe Justice is the ideator of Team Wikspeed: a team of volunteers distributed around the world who recently created a prototype car that is open source, modular and ultra-efficient in just three months, using processes borrowed from software development, the world from which Joe comes from. In addition to being a visionary, Joe is a fantastic and discussion prone person and this interview contains a very open and fruitful discussions I had with him at the end of April. I recommend you read it because it will be useful to you to understand how manufacturing – and consumption – are fated to change in coming years if, as Joe says, we want to continue living on this planet for a while.

The news is that this is not happening.
