  • The Story of MIT-Fablab Norway: Community Embedding of Peer Production
    Journal of Peer Production ISSN: 2213-5316 http://peerproduction.net The Story of MIT-Fablab Norway: Community Embedding of Peer Production Cindy Kohtala and Camille Bosqué Abstract: MIT-Fablab Norway was one of the first Fab Labs ever established, in northern Norway in 2002. Despite this auspicious beginning to a network that is rapidly growing, surprisingly little has been written about the genesis of the network or the Fab Lab itself. We therefore aim to contribute to this knowledge gap with a narrative account of our independent ethnographic research visits to the Lab. We combine our researcher perspectives, which are informed by, on the one hand, Aesthetics and a phenomenological understanding and, on the other, Science and Technology Studies, with Design Research bridging both. Our account aims to richly describe the Lab’s unique profile in the MIT Fab Lab network as a socially shaped entity and product of a particular time and place. Most salient in this narrative is the role of its charismatic founder, whose stories and metaphors become vehicles by which we come to understand how a Fab Lab forms its own identity, balancing the relationships with local stakeholders against those with the Fab Lab network; how it promotes certain principles and values of peer production; and how it represents itself to both maker insiders and outsiders. While situated and particular to this Lab, our interpretations may have implications for the trajectories of other Fab Labs and makerspaces, as well as our understanding of peer production as a new paradigm. Keywords: Fab Lab, ethnography, MIT-Fablab Norway, material peer production Cindy Kohtala and Camille Bosqué In spite of this emerging body of work, there remains a certain mystique that surrounds Fab Labs, their objectives and activities.

Grünfeld, Ivar Lie, Sindre Myhr, Vigdis Nygaard og Paul Pedersen Norut Alta - Áltá rapport : 2012:2 ISBN : ISBN: 978-82-7571-214-9 Oppdragsgiver : Kommunal- og regionaldepartementet Prosjektleder : Elisabeth Angell Oppsummering : Utviklingstrekkene innen folketall har vært litt bedre i Tiltakssonen enn i andre periferiregioner, sysselsettingen har økt kraftig, særlig fra siste høykonjunktur fra 2005. Det har skjedd omstruktureringer i næringslivet med framveksten av petroleumsrelatert virksomhet, samtidig med en kraftig nedbygging av fiskeriene og fiskeindustrien. Fem næringsklynger er identifisert. Analyser av arbeidsgiveravgiften viser at en økt avgift påvirker sysselsettingen på kort sikt primært i tjenesteforetak, på lang sikt er virkningen uklar. De personrettede virkemidlene; skattelette, nedskriving av studielån og økt barnetrygd virker både rekrutterende og bostabiliserende for aldersgruppen 18-40 år, og særlig for de med høyere utdanning. Framover vil det også være behov for virkemidlene, særlig for å stimulere tilbudet av relevant arbeidskraft. Derfor foreslås det en kraftig styrking av de personrettede virkemidlene.

Tall har tidligere vært offentliggjort i Statistisk ukehefte nr. 16-17/76 og Nye distriktstall nr. 4/76 for Nordland, Troms og Finnmark. Statistisk Sentralbyrå har bedt forfatteren analysere statistikken fra tilleggsundersøkelsen. I denne artikkelen søker han å avgrense den samiske befolkningen, og å beskrive den ut fra demografiske og sosiale kjennemerker: Dessuten sammenlikner han den samiske befolkningen i ulike deler av Nord-Norge, og analyserer den. samiske befolkning som en del av hele befolkningen i landsdelen. Statistisk Sentralbyrå, Oslo, 13. mars 1978 Petter Jakob Bjerve PREFACE In connection with the Population and Housing Census 1970 an additional survey was carried out in pre-selected census tracts in Nordland, Troms and Finnmark. The purpose was to give information on persons with Lappish connection resident in the tracts. Figures are previously published in Weekly Bulletin of Statistics no. 16-17/76 and New District Figures no. 4/76 for Nordland, Troms and Finnmark. Central Bureau of Statistics asked the author for an analysis of the information from the additional survey. In this article he tries to mark the bounds of the Lappish population and to give a description based on demographic and social characteristics.
