Hier ist ein Hacker „(...) jemand, der seinen Einfallsreichtum nutzt, um ein kluges Ergebnis zu erreichen, einen Hack, ohne dies auf den Computer zu beschränken. Das Wesen eines Hacks ist es, dass er rasch durchgeführt wird, effektiv ist und unelegant sein kann. Er erreicht das gewünschte Ziel, ohne die Systemarchitektur, in die er eingebettet ist, komplett umformen zu müssen, obwohl er oft im Widerspruch zu ihr steht.“ (WIKIPEDIA, HACKER, CC-BY-SA)

SUSTAIN-ABILITY
A complex but unsustainable designed world shapes our mind and how we come up with solutions: We fly around the world to
talk about sustainability! = LOCKED IN EFFECT

We need to hack our systems, cities etc. – we can‘t rebuild them.

Open source hardware is hardware whose design is made publicly available so that anyone can study, modify, distribute, make, and sell the design or hardware based on that design. The hardware’s source, the design from which it is made, is available in the preferred format for making modifications to it. (...) Open source hardware gives people the freedom to control their technology while sharing knowledge and encouraging commerce through the open exchange of designs.
Open Source makes our world
hackable
and therefor:
able to be free & trustable
