We love to mix: methods, disciplines, knowledge, culture and languages. We love our Bastard Culture!
Code is our literature: we build software to communicate, interact and inspire. Dyne.org is where art, science and technology meet open source.
We recycle old technology rather than create needs for new one: this is our way to respect the environment and optimize resources.
Our heritage
A large amount of people and organisations in all fields employed and redistributed our creations. Our software gives everybody the right to use, study, share and improve its code, supporting fundamental freedoms.
Zenroom is a small, portable and secure language interpreter of a domain specific language called zencode, able to execute cryptographic operations and smart contracts in a multiplatform environment.
Devuan GNU+Linux is a fork of Debian without systemd that allows users to reclaim control over their system by avoiding unnecessary entanglements and ensuring Init Freedom.
Large versioned repository of open source and open hardware 3D printable designs
Our vision is to promote a circular, resilient, and digitally-based mode of production.
We support collaboratively developed and globally shared data as commons on the web.
ReflowOS is an operating system for communities who want to create federated and secure economic networks to foster the creation of distributed value chains – satisfying human needs, without exceeding planetary boundaries.
Dowse is not only a functional tool, but a symbolic operation proposing a different approach to networking. It provides an easy to use interface with user-centric design inspired by a LEAN UX approach.
Gitzone is a git-based zone file management tool for BIND. Users can update their zones in a git repository, then during a push the zone files are checked, updated & reloaded from git receive hooks.

The Tomb project by Dyne.org is actually really cool. They have done a lot of work to make the power of cryptsetup accessible to mere mortals.

Zenroom stands for Citizen Crypto. It is a core part of the DECODE tech stack for Smart Cities and makes it easy to understand the complexity of data transformation while being compatible with any platform, including Legacy Infrastructure. Dyne.org makes Crypto for Citizens and makes it Open Source.

I was the 2nd Debian project leader. These days, I prefer to run Devuan, a true Debian derivative engineered the way I would probably have decided to make it. It’s efficient and trouble-free. Thanks to the Devuan developers for all of the work!
