Traditionally, production has been a privilege of a selected elite who had access to production means, knowledge and distribution channels. Nowadays, digital fabrication and 3D Printing lower the entry barriers to the world of making things, enabling individuals and small collectives to design and make their goods. If before we were making hundreds of thousands of products in a single factory, now we can make unique products in hundreds of thousand of locations. When there is a new way of making things, there is a new way to design and consume them. Designed globally, made locally. The talk explored the opportunities and challenges that additive manufacturing brings to the creative industries and how product design can benefit from the growing ecosystem of distributed manufacturing, creating new products and business models powered by 3D Printing.
