Description: Distributed design is an alternative model for product development, fabrication and business, utilising digital tools, open source and global networks. It is about taking advantage of the latest enabling technologies that make it possible to ‘ship the recipe, and not the product’ around the world, and tap into the potential this brings for local, more sustainable and even circular design.The Design for Distributed is an applicable course for designing products in the distributed design space, taught by a working engineer and product designer, in collaboration with partners, like Wikifactory - a social platform for collaborative product development with over 40K designers, engineers and product innovators developing over 2,000 projects, ranging from robotics, drones and electric vehicles, to biotech, agritech, smart furniture - and most recently - medical devices.This course is aimed at designers, engineers, makers, artists and students who are looking for a practical guide to distributed product design. This is a hands on course, with something you can take away and hold in your hand from the very first lesson! This course will pave the way in your career to take advantage of new digital fabrication technologies that are becoming a highly sought after skill for recruiters as well as opening up opportunities to scale your product innovation internationally with just a laptop and an internet connection.There are no formal prerequisites to this course, however it does help if you have an elementary understanding of CAD software (like Fusion 360, SolidWorks or Rhinoceros), product development (hardware) and digital fabrication tools (like 3D printing).This is a hands on project based course, resulting in you producing a full scale tensegrity chair! If you have access to a makerspace, fablab or workshop facility you can really make the most of what this course has to offer. However, having access to these tools is not a prerequisite either, as
