Essay 

Excerpt:

As explained the prosumer innovation and P2P collaboration are levelling the power relationships of the knowledge industry and are contributing continuously by adding, changing, and leading mass production by means of new models of mass collaboration. The need of consumers to become prosumers arises when the influence and the need for peer influence are detected in consumers hacking into the power, design, and manufacturing processes. A prominent design website Designboom.com (2014) reports on ‘hacking’ as follow:

“The term hacking holds many varying definitions. The predominant meaning of the word used to refer to an illegal activity performed by computer experts, however, a new definition is slowly taking over. This new form of hacking is not done by expert computer users or digital criminals but is in fact done by everyday people. This new terminology for hacking refers to the act of modifying or customizing everyday products to improve their functionality, repurpose them or just for fun” (Designboom, 2014).

“‘Crowdsourcing’ (Howe 2006) is an [another] case of such innovative collective intelligence [development]. It leverages the wisdom of crowds (Surowiecki, 2004) and is already changing the way groups of people produce knowledge, generate ideas and makes them actionable. A very famous example of a crowdsourcing outcome is the distributed encyclopedia ‘Wikipedia’. Published research agendas are asking how techniques are addressing ‘the crowd’ can be applied to nonprofit environments; namely universities, and fundamental research in general” (Buecheler, Sieg, Fuchlin & Pheifer, 2010, p. 679).
