01. Open P2P Design workshops
In November 2009 Massimo Menichinelli and Roger Pitiot organized two workshops, one in South Korea (in Seoul) and the other in Singapore. Both workshops share the same structure and contents, even if the Singapore one had to be one day shorter (3 days instead of 4).

Open P2P Design: how to organize open projects for distributed systems
What is Open P2P Design, where it’s coming from and going to, why it’s interesting and what we should expect enable distributed creativity
- collaborative activity for complex problem solving
- metadesign for open process
- co-design for open projects
The Workshop will answer the following questions:
What is Open Design and how can we develop it with a community in a collaborative way?
How can we design the co-design process and the tools we will use with a community?
How can we design the first Open Design source code and manage its business and sharing?
How can we set up Open Design businesses in the future and which technologies and strategies we will use?
Theoric Contents
- Open Design System
- How to open Design processes: co-design, collaborative design, metadesign
- Open Culture, Intellectual Property, Copyright, Creative Commons for Designers
- The coming distributed manufacturing scenario for Design and Businesses
Practical Contents
- Co-design of a collaborative activity for an open system, a community
