[Open Design + Hardware] Shared machines in Guardian and a PhD studentship

Tue Dec 1 23:19:16 UTC 2015

Hello open design folk!

Two small things that may be of interest to this group:

1) I've just published a piece in the Guardian about the importance of
shared machine shops and hands-on, open collaboration in an Apple-saturated
world. It was hard to fit everything into 800 words but I hoped it was a
good starting point at least! In any case, would love the opinions of folks
on this list, given you are all already doing wonderful work in these areas
already!

2) The second thing, a doctoral research position:

The London Doctoral Design Centre (LDoc) is an AHRC-funded centre for
doctoral training, a collaboration between the Royal College of Art,
Kingston University and the University of Arts London.

The Centre offers PhD studentships and enhanced doctoral training with a
focus on practice-led research in Design.  Applications for 2016 entry are
open, see ldoc-cdt.ac.uk/how-to-apply/
