REHOGAR X PLUS. Open Devices is an experimentation and research process that takes the 496 projects from previous editions as their starting point and suggests reflecting on, putting into practice and jointly researching the thematic and methodological aspects encountered.
—
REHOGAR X PLUS. Open Devices is a 40-day collective research project which tackles the issue of design as an open form and as a resource. Based on these two perspectives, it functions as an experimental and open research unit that, through four devices, tracks historical models and examines real projects to situate the present, explore with our own hands their transforming possibilities and speculate on new contexts of living and future paths for design practice.
Dispositivos
Time machine
A device that enables us to move through time. Returning to the past to recognise role models: figures, publications and milestones in history; understanding the present; and moving towards the future to make headway into new paths for design practice.
Coordination: Raquel Pelta, Elisabet Roselló, Makea Tu Vida.
A les eines!
a device for experimenting with production processes and is equipped with the necessary utensils and tools for different transformation techniques. It involves the challenge of activating some of the participating projects in previous editions of REHOGAR to evolve them and create new proposals.
Coordination: Makea Tu Vida.
Common artefacts
An archival device and development of mobile artefacts and devices that activate transformation processes in the territory through community work. It begins with the collection of artefacts that have participated in the different editions of REHOGAR and a selection of those developed by the Makea Tu Vida collective, to design and prototype the Mobile Unit XRCB-Barcelona Community Radio Network.
Coordination: Efraín Foglia and Makea Tu Vida
