Day 01:Introduction to Open Design
November 25th-27th 2009NTU, Singaporehttp://www.workshop.colab-design.org/
01.What is Open Design?
It started with Free Software/Open Source and P2P
* Software Development* Information / Knowledge* Open Access, Open Process and Open Content* P2P Dynamics and horizontal networks instead of hierarchies
--> The dynamics that are shaping Internet
Fre Software, Open Source and P2P as promising way to organise communities
Let`s try to explain Open Source...
Open Cola!http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenCola_(drink)
Information compiled into a product
But if you don`t like Cola we have also Beer...
Free Beer!http://freebeer.org/
Information compiled into a product
Free Software/Open Source and P2P are just breaking into other disciplines...
* Open Source Everywherehttp://www.wired.com/wired/archive/11.11/opensource.html
* Open Publishing* Open Content* Open Biotechnology* Open Source Religion* Open Cola / Open Beer* Open Money* Open Design* ...
Fre Software, Open Source and P2P as promising way to organise communities
What is Open Design?
a project published with a license that facilitates its sharing and that can be “compiled” or “manufactured” locally * sharing* collaboration* open licenses* code --> artifact
Open Design refers to every kind of design projects that can be shared in a digital format over a network
What kind of open design projects?
Open Web Design repositories:http://www.openwebdesign.org/http://www.oswd.org/http://osdnetwork.org/http://www.opendesigns.org/
And all the open source software themes, templates,Frameworks, libraries...
It's Open Web Design! GPL, LGPL, CC, ...
What kind of open design projects?
Open Fonts libraries:http://www.theleagueofmoveabletype.com/http://openfontlibrary.fontly.org/http://openfontlibrary.org/http://www.typeforge.net
(Free as in Free Beer, and sometimes Free Speech)http://www.fontsquirrel.com/
It's Open Font Design!http://scripts.sil.org/OFL
What kind of open design projects?
Open Processing sketches repository:http://www.openprocessing.org/...
And all the projects that uses Arduino or Processing and are released under an open license:http://harkopen.com/projects...
It's Open Interaction Design! GPL, LGPL, CC, ...
What kind of open design projects?
Open Architecture for markets:http://architecture.mit.edu/house_n/projects.htmlhttp://www.openprototype.com
Open Architecture for Humanityhttp://openarchitecturenetwork.org/http://os-house.org/http://www.solaroof.org/http://studiowikitecture.wordpress.com/
It's Open Architecture! CC, ...
What kind of open design projects?
Open Cinema / Open Movie:http://www.elephantsdream.org/http://www.bigbuckbunny.org/http://durian.blender.org/http://www.thecosmonaut.org/http://thisoneisonus.org/...
It's Open Movie Design!
CC...and also Open Game Design!
02.Open (Product) Design cases
Designing Open Collaborative projects: Thinkcyclehttp://www.thinkcycle.org (now closed)http://web.media.mit.edu/~nitin/thesis/
This is... Open Design!
Designing Open Collaborative projects: Instructableshttp://www.instructables.com/
This is... Open Design!
Open Design: Ronen Kadushinhttp://www.ronen-kadushin.com/Open_Design.asp
Open Design from a single Designer
So many projects!
Open Car Projects

Open Design from an enterprise
Source: http://www.openmoko.comIt's also Open Source Software!
Open Design: OpenMokohttp://www.openmoko.com / http://www.openmoko.org

So Open (Product) Design is...
* a lot of diferent kind of projects* in its frst steps* starting from, using and including Open Source Software /
Open Hardware* working well when project and artifact are code/digital* still developing tools, business models, processes and
systems when the artifact is a physical good* limited to share a fnished project rather than designing it
collaboratively right now
What is Open Design, for rival goods?
a distributed system of design & manufacturing based on: * sharing* collaboration* open licenses* open and distributed projects* open and distributed manufacturing technologies
A system of agents that:
* use* design* manufacture* market
* distribute* manage the
end-of-life* ...
Current approach to Open Design projects
* very few single designers initiatives and designers interested* recent communities (very few succesful ones)* enterprises, hackers more interested in the hardware* fabbing technologies developed by hackers
--> let people design a project and then just publish it online--> lack of new tools, processes, systems that enable
designers and users in developing open design projects
Is it just publishing a fle online?
0.3How can we start an Open Design project?
Open Design actually is Metadesign
* a community is designing, not just a single designer* the process is open, and therefore out of control* the process ideally never stops
--> We need Metadesign within single Open Design projects
--> We need Metadesign for making Open Design possible
Shift of focus: from Product Design to Metadesign
The community is the diference between Open and Closed projects
Just look at the following pictures...
We need to start from a Community, not from a product!
Innovation in a closed, hierarchical, proprietary, linear project

Social Network Analysishttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_network_analysishttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_network_analysis_software
Social network analysis views social relationships in terms of network theory about nodes and ties. Nodes are the individual actors within the networks, and ties are the relationships between the actors. The resulting graph-based structures are often very complex.
* networks, connections* direction, weight* structure
The scientifc way of analysing a community
Social Network Analysis
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_network
A simpler way to analyse a community...
Some questions about its specifc activity:* subject (the community)* object (of the activity)* rules [part of the platform]* roles (division of labour) [part of the platform]* artifacts (material, immaterial, cognitive) [part of de platform]* larger community (with which interacts)* participation:
* top-down* bottom-up* marketplace
* reputation levels
In order to understand for who and with who we design!
Reputation Levelshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legitimate_peripheral_participation
Knowledge (tacit or explicit) is what shape an open community: an horizontal structure instead of an hierarchical one, an open and peer-to-peer one as a result of all the interactions and of its history and reputation
information --> knowledge --> reputation --> organization
Any questions or comments?
