Fab the Knowledge

Abstract This paper draws a link between what happens in maker spaces and how these processes can be simulated the mathematical collaborative model (co-model) of research through design (co-design) process (RTC). The result is ability to identify main variables for simulating “making” dynamics RTC model. outcome discussed with an emphasis on “intangible” role “making,” alongside proposed concept “fab knowledge.” Speculative thinking used here innovative theoretical aspects their application learning contexts. co-model compute, simulate train co-design intangible spaces, such as fab labs. In multiple actors different skills backgrounds, who may or not experts design, collaborate setting question identifying shared answer, RTC. A “network” neural mechanisms operating communicating non-experts, like computing system biological mechanism, thereby “fabricating” knowledge.
