Luca Marini (he/him) is an Italian designer and researcher based in The Netherlands whose practice spans graphic, editorial and web design, and the disobedient use of software and hardware through participatory settings. His current research explores the intersections between network technologies, the theory of the commons, and hacktivism.

I'm available for commissions and excited to collaborate!

The Mutable Net

 

2026 → Design Academy Eindhoven Graduation Show, Dutch Design Week

 

2026 → Project nominated for the Gijs Bakker Award 2026

 

2026 → Mentioned by Dezeen Magazine as one of the DAE Grad Show highlights in “Eight must-see exhibits at Dutch Design Week 2026”

‘The Mutable Net’ is a collectively developed mesh network. Through fieldwork with open-source network communities in Italy, collaborations with developers, and a series of research labs, the project explores how a connectivity infrastructure can be collectively owned, maintained, and governed rather than controlled by commercial providers. ‘The Mutable Net’ uses design to help people participate in existing cultures of technological self-determination, and to make those practices replicable elsewhere. The installation stages a functioning local mesh network through networking devices built in the labs, self-hosted servers, and ‘A Repository for the Mutable Net’ (mutablenet.xyz) — an archive that visitors can explore through the network itself. Part exhibition, part toolkit, part learning environment, the project demonstrates how digital infrastructure can be built as a commons. (Cover Picture by Femke Reijerman)
