 So, hello, I'm here to talk about the UBench, the open source hardware public bench that I created, and that you've all seen downstairs in the cafeteria and the open space. So the idea is to go from a standard European ePal palette to a bench in quick easy steps. So about the name, why UBench, I pronounce it UBench, that is the, well, that's how you can read it, how to pronounce it, it mimics a cryptic Scandinavian names, and you know what I'm referring to, and the UH stands for urban, urban hacker. The inspiration of it is about graffiti, graffiti art that you can see pretty much everywhere in urban areas, which is now called street art, and I recommend you read the, so you want to write on walls by marked surface, and it's a good text if you want to write on walls. I'm also interested in guerrilla gardening and open source urban planning. These are the works, urban works or street art works that inspired me, this one by William Los Lamsen, you may be aware of, or this one by Mark Jenkins, which is not a typical work by Mark Jenkins, but inspired me too. So the origin of this work is actually, I had this question in mind, that is, what is the cheapest and easiest material you can find in urban areas, and what was missing in my urban environment? And the easiest one I could find were pallets, because once you start looking for them, you find them pretty much everywhere, I mean, laying in the city. And so with a friend, we gathered some in our neighborhood and started playing with it, doing benches for our little community garden, or this kind of bench that we set up in the street so that nobody could remove it, except by destroying it, which they did after a while. And this is the actual first bench that I created, and that stayed in front of my house for a year and a half. And this came out of a pallet and stayed there without being attached and was used by neighbors, homeless people and so on, which was interesting and, well, interesting to see how that worked. So how about the publication now? It's always this question, you do something and then you have to document it and share it, and you always say, well, one day I will do it. But you have peer pressure, you have your friends asking you to do it, and then finally the neighbors wanted to do a workshop during a day, so they could all have a bench in front of their house too. So that pushed me into releasing this, the source code, which I have to hand out to people if they want to build a bench at their home. This is some pictures of the workshop, the first one, with the neighbors. We didn't close the street, we just brought pallets and started building it in the street on a Sunday afternoon. This is what it looked like. So the question was about the license, I mean, I was already a great supporter of free culture and I really want to release that bench as a free culture or open source hardware, like you called it. I realized that there was no real license or there was no license called open source hardware, that was my first mistake. And I wish there was one. There are many licenses you can apply to open source hardware, but there's no real one that is really specially crafted for that kind of project. So I chosen Creative Commons and, well, from that on, it's been under that license and I don't see much problem except when I attended a Creative Commons meeting and they said, well, you can't really use that license for that project because your work is based on a patented ISO standard, which is a pallet. And I said, well, I don't give a damn much about it. But this could be an interesting subject for any law people interested in seeing if this is something I can do or how could I do it. The advantages I see about using a free license is that I've been called many times to help and to build these benches at different places. And it gives me the chance to say, you don't need me to build that thing. So if you want to build it, if you want to use it for whatever purpose, you don't need me there. So if you want me to really be there to help you, well, then I will ask you for a fee. And that is actually helped me a lot because usually when you work on projects and you don't release it as open source or free to use, people as call you to have that project for whatever they call you for. But if they don't have the money, you're in a bad situation where you really want to help them do it, but you've got to make a living and so on. Here it's easy. You don't need me. So if you don't need me, I mean, if you really want me, then you've got to put a price on it. Use cases, community gardens, done that festivals. I've done that too. I realize that for street performers or performers that go sometimes into places where there's no benches and nothing for the public to sit, they might use it. It's also a good way to spread free culture and to areas where they have no idea about what that is. And I don't know if they really understand what it is after they've built the benches, but at least they've heard about it. And also the recycling, green and eco-minded people really like it. And I really like that they also hear about free culture. This is for the community garden with children. This is what it looks like, so it's not that bad. And this is with teenagers that have dropped out of school and are put into a different type of work and actions so they can start learning again. Thank you. And they especially liked the decorating part. So the future, I need to update the source code because by building it, a lot of time I realize that there is some wrong or misleading part in what I've given to you. I'm still waiting for someone to fork it. And I might work one day on the U-table. That could be useful. It's also, we've started with a couple of guys from Brussels and Paris. A mailing list called open source product design where you're invited to join if you're interested in open source furniture because we want to start discussing about licenses and how to promote it and how to invest the design world, which is a very closed world and to push free culture in that area. So thank you. My name was Julien Dessouff and you can find me on Twitter and you can download and find more about the bench at this address. Thanks.
