我們生活在一個緊密連結的世界，這種現象得益於科技的快速發展，能與各地的人分享想法和生活，建立全球性的社群。
「開源」是一種對公眾開放、可自由使用與修改的方法，彷彿具有形的動能，將開源與設計結合，賦予盡的彈性，向外拉伸設計的想像，使其變得可追溯、可共享，亦可重新激發成更多元的創意，傳遞給社會上有需求的人，有效的從不同層面擴散，進而觸及到更多使用者、開發者等，以此形成良性循環。
銘傳商設第三十一屆作為起始點，將開源的理想源源不絕的向前延伸，和過往純粹的「分享」不同，透過二十九個小組實際授權，促使我們探索不同的可能性，讓設計元素能重新編輯、轉化，彼此交流拓展思維，激勵更多人一同參與，攜手創造出多樣的作品實現實質意義上的永續，挑戰傳統並走向一個更加開放的未來。
We live in a closely connected world, thanks to the rapid development of technology. This enables us to share ideas and experiences with people around the world, creating a global community.
‘Open source’ is a method that is open to the public, allowing for free use and modification. Open source seems to possess an intangible kinetic energy, which, when combined with design, endows it with endless flexibility, stretching the imagination outward. This makes design traceable, shareable, and capable of reigniting creativity in various forms, delivering to those in need in society. It effectively diffuses from different perspectives, reaching more users, developers, and so on, thereby forming a virtuous cycle.
The 31st Ming Chuan University commercial design students marked the beginning, constantly advancing the idea of open source through design. Unlike the past concept of “PURE SHARING,” our 29 teams authorized the designs, allowing us to explored different possibilities, enabling the re-editing and transformation of design elements. Through mutual exchange, we expand our thinking, inspiring more people to participate together, creating diverse works to achieve real sustainability, challenging tradition, and moving towards a more open future.
