Dear all,

I am a researcher within the Joint Research Centre of the European 
Commission and my studies focus on issues of scientific quality in 
relation to the phenomena of “DIY science”, “citizen science”, “makers 
movement” and the like, as to unveil the characteristics of these 
non-conventional systems of knowledge production (makerspaces, fablabs, 
virtual and real communities often aimed to address local problems).

The overall argument gravitates around thes idea that scientific valid 
outcomes are being produced even outside the academia and R&D centres.

At the moment I am considering some study cases for an ethnographic 
study aimed at understanding internal applied practices to assess the 
relevance and quality of community projects like yours. For that reason, 
I thought to contact you and ask if you are available for a short Skype 
interview (approx. 20 min) in which I would ask very informal questions 
on your own experiences along the activities of the makerspace.

Sure enough, the interviews will be used anonymously and just for 
research activities, without any direct reference to names and persons.

Nonetheless, we are setting up a makerspace ourselves inside a big 
institution like ours, and we can even pheraps discuss possibilities for 
collaboration, visit and future events.

Do not hesitate to contact me for further details,

Thank you for your time
