Over the past six months, the Digital Maker Collective (DMC), a group of University of the Arts London UAL staff, students, alumni, have been developing a project called ‘Beta Society’ in collaboration with 5 partner/associates, including:
- LionHeart In The Community (LITC)
- Black Thrive
- Child Rights International Network (CRIN)
- Happy Finish
- Open Design & Manufacturing (OD&M)
Between October 2018 and March 2019, the DMC met with the above partner/associates(not all together, mostly in pairs) to explore collaboration possibilities.
Over this time, there was an ongoing period of getting to know each other and building of relationships, establish trust and to help us understand each other’s motivations for collaboration.
