As you say in your blog, applying open source to non-digial things could crystalize a new society. Perhaps a good example of this could be the Opencola soft drink <http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Cola>. This model could be used to copyleft medicines, maybe under the Design Science License <http://www.dsl.org/copyleft/>. ยท Example of open-source design by Adbusters <http://www.adbusters.org/campaigns/first/re-design/opensource.html> -- Atreyu 42 <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Informational Identity <http://informationalidentity.blogspot.com/> # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: [EMAIL PROTECTED] and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
