Assignment:
Develop a plan for dissemination of your final project.
Disseminating my FabAcademy projects
Dissemination is defined as the delivery and receiving of (in this case) my creative ideas and projects developed throughout my participation in the FabAcademy. This website is in effect a dissemination tool.
Herewith, I have attached and documented all the design files, programming source codes and design/build processes.
Hopefully, these could be useful to others, be further developed and be part of a social change, be it educational or resourceful. Perhaps, my Affordable CNC Machine could be further developed and could in the future be easily built, making an impact to under-privileged communities.
