g-f(2)301 The big picture of the digital age (5/30/2021), MIT SMR, Digital Fabrication During the COVID-19 Pandemic.




ULTRA-condensed knowledge


A KEY QUESTION about digital fabrication
  • Whether the progress toward increased self-sufficient production made during the COVID-19 crisis can be sustained over the long term. 

1. Lesson learned, Coordination and communication in the virtual R&D process
  • Coordination and communication in the virtual R&D process and among fab labs converting to production operations included regular online meetings along with offline collaborations. 
2. Lesson learned, Forms of distributed R&D and production
  • These forms of distributed R&D and production highlight how innovation and safety can be addressed during a rapidly evolving crisis, even without the structure of a formal organization.
3. Lesson learned, The patterns of self-sufficiency
  • The patterns of self-sufficiency that have emerged during the pandemic reveal how distributed R&D and local production could persist and expand as vital organizational and institutional arrangements in the pandemic recovery.
