The Design Academy Eindhoven draws master students from all over the world every year. During the one week program, an open source production line was created; student were welcome to work each day in new interdisciplinary teams, responding on a different assignment using combinations of personal backgrounds (such as local food ingredients, national news items, ancestors), a type of material and a technique. The personal and cultural backgrounds were transformed into quick and dirty prototypes - such as new textures, belongings, services, subcultures, tools and recipes. The aim of the workshop was to practice 'learning by making': to work and prototype collaboratively from conceptualisation to hands-on production in an experimental and light-hearted way.
