I would have liked to talk to you about Giuseppe
porzio what he would do in this
I would have liked to talk about it at the moment
of his untimely death and of the
pain of a group of friends and relatives
I would have liked to talk about it as a
group of friends and relatives have
channeled this pain he founded
an association in its name that bears the
his nickname
I would have liked to teach you
write sis crack because when I speak
everyone is wrong but I would like to talk too
of the fab lab in its name which is based
on his ideas on his will on the
his way to make a greasy one lost
common to the province of matera instead
today I talk to you about a story inside
of the fab lab I speak to you of a history and of
a project maybe an idea you have it
already it was a November day like
so many when one of the members sis crack that
lives in pisa and that cracks the system
with us we are committed to change the
things tell us a very interesting
project it is an open violin
acoustic and printable source in 3d in
good part printable in 3d through
the most common now more and more
widespread in our homes
3d printers fdm needless to say that just
informed about this project we have
started to analyze the site at
search for information by visiting the
make section dedicated to do it yourself
because open source is just that
if something
you do not have the skills it’s not the resources
to never buy the capacity for it
build it you can do it alone or as it is
success in my case make them with the
your community
immediately the spring e has started
looking inside the site we have
analyzed those that are the components
of the jet violin we start to
print the first telecom you need
pieces to build it of 4 pieces three not
they were printed almost by miracle
all in one breath and who is a good three
to know what it means to print
worry that the nights will be fine
insomniacs give up their lives
socially means a lot
incredibly, the first three come
out without problems then we realize
of a problem
one of the pieces the handle fails not
it’s too big it does not go inside
of our of our press era
as it is recommended on the site in a way
and in the other we must find one
solution something we would have invented a
some point was brilliant idea in
we are really updating to reason
in three dimensions
we could siro obviously it was impossible
print it considering an area of
print all open source 3d printers
and cars built like ours
within our laboratory is of
about 20 centimeters per side on three axes
xvi yez
but let’s begin to think that
placing them diagonally
in the print volume then
positioning it towards the other along
the z axis the handle incredibly
obviously generated for those who print in 3d
I will understand that placing a handle in
that way is madness means
increase exponentially the hours of
mold increase the risks because
unfortunately, while press roe means
stay if even more glue than the
piece is good maybe just a black
out everything goes to hell but here we are
we gave up we decided to
really want to teleport as it is
success in star trek
as they did doc and marty from a boss
at the other end of the world a violin from
just ask a question
but then why are you talking about it here?
today certainly with wines I will grant one
performance has not yet learned to
play a violin
or I will tell you just about this
how tele was possible
carry
in short, after just 33 hours of printing e
as I say this, the masses do not say it
average but life is too short for
3d printing the handle came off
in short we had all the pieces
obviously the enthusiasm was a lot but
we were lucid at the moment we only have
of the pieces you need to put the whole is not
still a violin guys keep the
calm
so we begin to try to understand the
pieces missing the strings the mechanics
adapt the last components in fact
a little heavy weight I’m doing too
you struggle to hold it in your hands because two gods
components of the souls that hold it
together the original project of the
guys who founded it and or low
I put beckett renews and expected in
carbon
unfortunately when it comes to glocality
there were days in a global connected way
with the world but then act locally
not even the accounts with reality will be
in inches which measures from one
hardware does not find the carbon you
forget it then we started to
use aluminum then together
everyone and try to mount it not
only there was a fairly curious case there
we turn the strings for the mechanics
obviously ignorant ignorant on the subject
of construction of musical instruments ad
a professional in the area
obviously enthusiastic about seeing it e
he complimented us on the audacity
with this year carrying on this
goal however strong of his
experience gained in very expensive
lute-maker courses told us hello nì
But guys nice, but everything is beautiful
your violin your valean not
will unfortunately play we had discovered a
po and generate documented we were
studying how to build tools
we want to understand how one sounds
instrument and I understood that unfortunately
the sound box of our valean
It is composed of three pieces while the
tradition is the rule of long tradition
of the violin masters violinmakers wants that
it must be a single body as right
that it is
we repeated this we had it
discovered but now we were not pulling
back if we had seen a video in
which in oval sounded well those good with
the bad ones had to do it with us too
and needless to say that we did it
it was beautiful doctor was because of the
first model that was really a
miracle no one even better than
This is unfortunately a bit went
destroyed on long journeys
but it was beautiful it looks like a violin
true I do not know how we managed with one
some luck even to recreate some
millennia veins we were incredulous
also between printed in pla material
plastic yes but made from corn one
something that had never been seen before
very happy and in short , our valean
amazingly it sounded as you can in
part feel on this violin and I do not know
its story seemed to me a lot
similar to that of the calabroni no that the
structure of the hornet in relation to
weight does not allow him to fly but the
calabro and do not know so fly but
from our palin does not know his
sound box and three compassionate
pieces and then play what is
wanted to tell through this
history within our humble
laboratory and that nobody has to tell you
what is possible what is impossible and
that if today they can here to talk to you about one
violin and all thanks to open source
to wanting to think shared therefore you
be both makers and the hacker’s are
sick of DIY’re everything
that you want the important that you know
learn from others and not only if
do not learn from others with
others to build a future together
best I leave you with a quote from
peps and I tell you that we have
simply tried to look at the
reality from another perspective by one
another point of view and to overcome the
our limits as c as it has us
taught peps me I wonder if we a
we were able to suck
teleport a violin from America
to bring it here today to matera what it is
possible to do in any other corner
of the world
thank you
[Applause]
