Skylyr is quoted as saying: " The open source movement is very interesting. There is a lot of value in being able share parts, plans, code, and licensing. I think that it is perhaps an extreme in the world of business but that is why it will make changes in the way we live. I don't think that it is necessarily the system in place but I do think that more companies should begin adopting some open source practices, specifically offering files for replacement parts. That would extend the lifecycles of their products and increase brand loyalty. The open source movement is great because it opens lots of doors to innovation and marketing. I think most valuable of the two is innovation which can be easily stifled by proprietary technology and patents. I got to experience one of the benefits of open source communities when I recently broke a clip to a camp chair and simply printed a replacement on my Jellybox. I think that if I were a merchandising company owner, selling things with lots of parts I would be silly not to consider releasing files for replacements at some point in time, but I also think that might not always be in the best interest of the company and timing would be important".

We were assigned an object to Celtic-ify. I was assigned a vase and here are the first two attempts.
