Digital Fabrication Studio
At the same time of the FabAcademy, I've been lecturing a course about digital fabrication at Media Lab Helsinki - School of Art, Design and Architecture - Aalto University: Digital Fabrication Studio (25438). Many of the things I'm lecturing come from the FabAcademy, so I'm sharing the content back, I hope this may be useful for everybody. The lectures are published under a Creative Commons license

About Massimo...
My background is in Industrial and Service Design since I have a Master of Science in Industrial Design from the Politecnico di Milano (Milan, Italy) and I have also studied at the Elisava School of Design (Barcelona, Spain). I've been interested in Design as a strategic process for enabling collaboration within distributed systems with open and p2p dynamics since 2005 with my master degree thesis. I then founded the openp2pdesign.org project, an open source community for the research and design for open, complex and collaborative projects, systems and processes.
