• information interchange format • sharing documentation • independent of system used at individual lab “FabML” would be an XML definition tailored for Fablab project documentation needs - including things such as controlled vocabularies for machines and materials needed to complete a project in order to allow global searchability and specifying and formalizing other aspects of manufacturing (which will undoubtedly become more obvious as the project proceeds).

• “[The] isolation from others is the necessary life condition for every mastership which consists in being alone with the ‘idea’, the mental image of the thing to be.”

• “Action, as distinguished from fabrication, is never possible in isolation; to be isolated is to be deprived of the capacity to act.”

Arendt, Hannah (1958). The Human Condition. p. 161 | p. 188
