Makers\u2019 Inquiry\u00a0Italia<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>is an\u00a0inquiry\u00a0that\u00a0tried\u00a0to\u00a0describe,\u00a0under different points of view,\u00a0the making phenomenon\u00a0and the practice of self-production in Italy<\/strong>. The project has been developed with the collaboration of\u00a0\u00a0Fondazione Make in Italy \u2013 CDB<\/strong>,\u00a0Associazione Make in Italy<\/strong>,\u00a0and with the endorsement of\u00a0DESIS Network<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

This is a research format based on\u00a0an\u00a0<\/em>open and replicable\u00a0online survey<\/em>\u00a0, which aims to\u00a0explore the condition of producers operating in a certain geographical reality.\u00a0External researchers will be able to carry out the survey in their countries starting from the same format. In this way, it would be possible to extend the database as time goes on and compare\u00a0the results at an international level.<\/p>\n

The main concepts of the\u00a0makers\u2019 Inquiry\u00a0are:<\/p>\n

1. The survey was carried out not only on makers, auto-production designers\u00a0or lab managers as subjects, but also on\u00a0making, micro\u00a0and self-production as an economic activity;<\/p>\n

2. The different subjects (makers, designers and lab managers) were involved in the phase where the dedicated questions were formulated;<\/p>\n

3. The results are released\u00a0as\u00a0open data, directly usable by the maker for the development of its activities.<\/p>\n

The first edition was tested in Italy in 2014, it involved 134 makers, lab manager and designer-autoproducers\u00a0and was\u00a0officially presented in March 2015\u00a0at\u00a0Polifactory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
