Clayton On Art: FabLab Tacoma is a fabulous resource for artists - Spew Blog. Fait Main Magazine. Dans les ateliers libres du futur tout objet produit est en bêta. Digital fabrication: the mass customization. Biohackers: El laboratorio se traslada al garaje. "Nosotros [biohackers] rechazamos la percepción popular de que la ciencia sólo se hace en los laboratorios de las universidades, las empresas que han costado millones de dólares o el Gobierno; nosotros sostenemos que el derecho a la libertad de investigación, para buscar el conocimiento por uno mismo, es un derecho tan fundamental como el de la libertad de expresión o religiosa".

La frase forma parte del llamado Manifiesto Biopunk, considerado la declaración de principios del movimiento DIY BIO (Do It Yourself Biology o Biología casera). Sus integrantes quieren sacar la biotecnología de las grandes corporaciones y, desde sus garajes, llevar los beneficios de la ingeniería genética a toda la humanidad. La modificación genética no es nueva.

"La libertad de investigación es tan fundamental como la de expresión" Al menos, ese es el objetivo confeso de la autora del manifiesto, la programadora autodidacta estadounidense Meredith Patterson.

Making 'MakerCulture: Taking Things into Our Own Hands' Check out the blog, wiki, podcasts, photostream and YouTube channel and feature stories, all part of a new series on The Tyee. Behind the scenes as 45 students create the MakerCulture series. For 12 weeks in the fall of 2009, 45 online journalism students at Ryerson University and the University of Western Ontario worked together to document the evolving Maker Culture community. Maker Culture? That's coders, fabricators, foodies, artists, educators, activists, citizen and even scientists grabbing the Do-It-Yourself ethic with both hands and changing our world in the process.

These are people who aren't just making things, they're making a point of sharing what they've learned, what they've made, and why. Makers are responding directly, locally to globalization, commercialization, copyright and central command and control. Sometimes they even helped it grow.

Online | The Re-Emergence of DIY vs. Big Organizations by Johnny Lee. Today we have a special guest post The Re-Emergence of DIY vs Big Organizations by Johnny Lee. The post is here on MAKE in its entirety with permission. It’s an excellent read for makers, innovators, and any company looking to harness the smarts of the tinkerers out there. Johnny Lee is best known for his Wiimote hacking, which sparked thousands of projects.

And most recently, I worked with him (and Ladyada) on the Kinect hack + bounty. He recently left Microsoft Research and is now at Google. I have actually put quite a bit of thought toward this topic having recently jumped back and forth between the DIY hobby culture, serious academic research, and massively funded commercial product development. I’ve had the fortune to observe people trying to make new and interesting things at extremely different scales — from $100 budgets to $100,000,000 budgets. One thing that I find very consistent: good ideas come from anywhere. But, why is this re-emergence happening now? I have a theory. The Way Things Work. The New Way Things Work[edit] A newer version, The New Way Things Work, released on October 26, 1998, contains additional text on the workings of computers and digital technology.

It also lacks two pages from the first edition; one page demonstrated the working of a mechanical coin-operated parking meter.
