Creativity and Innovation. ‌ On one hand, DiDIY can support enough new cases of innovation and creativity that the risks coming from limiting or, in some cases, prohibiting it, cannot be dismissed. In the current economy, many new, innovative companies and services in all sectors could not even start without DiDIY. But even long established small and medium businesses (SMEs) in traditional sectors of the economy may remain economically viable only thanks to the types of creativity and innovation that are possible only through DiDIY. A good example of these situations comes from ceramic artist Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx. The impact of DiDIY in Xxxxxxx’x work is relevant because it is of such a general nature that comments about it34 remain valid, in one way or another, in practically all crafts, and for many small businesses, no matter how “low tech” they may have been until today. The first relevant thing in Xxxxxxx’x way of working, in fact, is how he used DiDIY to enhance his creativity and innovate: “Xxxxxxx’x work stands apart. His self-designed ceramic 3D printer, extruder, and software are tools still deeply embedded in traditional workflow, and the 3D printed pieces are imbued with intentional imperfections, resulting in ambiguous yet alluring artefacts.”. The second thing is how such creativity and innovation were technically possible, and economically affordable, only thanks to “copying”, that is reusing and reassembling openly available knowledge and standard materials: “The hardware is self-designed, but inspired by the many DIY delta printers 32 xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xx/blogs/how-some-greek-students-built-their-very-own-DiDIY-underwater-robot-vehicle.‌ 33 xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xx/blogs/DiDIY-robotics-makes-all-children-work-together. 34 xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xx/blogs/digital-diy-helps-artisans-produce-better-products. that already exist. The construction is quite simple, based on widely available components and easily machinable materials.”. Taking just two more, and very different, sectors of the economy as further proof of the potential of DiDIY in this kind of creativity and innovation, we may mention jewellery, in which 3D printing, laser engraving and similar techniques are becoming more and more popular every year35; and agriculture, where during our research we have found DiDIY applied in the same way as Xxxxxxx’x for autonomous tractors36, more productive beehives37 and milking machines38. The examples just cited help to explain what are the risks of not supporting this sort of DiDIY- ena...
