We apply research and design methods to all levels of computing, from the electronics to operating systems, applications and networks. We acknowledge the deeper history of computing and study its embodiments from wearables and smart textiles to workstations and servers. We believe that computers should not be devices for corporate data collection on people's lives. Instead, computers should empower people and give them exclusive control over their information. We are making this a reality by creating our own libre hardware, software and wearables.
