==='''WHO''' are you?===
*''Name/Nationality/Ethnicity'' - Sebastian Tsakok, British

*''Location'' – London, UK

*''Contact Information'' – smjtsakok (at) gmail (dot) com

*''Introductory Video'' -

*''Resume/CV'' –

*''Hobbies and Pastimes'' - Efficient use of human biomechanics - in contexts like rock climbing, parkour, martial arts, physical labour

==='''WHY''' are you motivated to support/develop this work?===
*''Do you endorse open source culture?''
Yes

*''Why are you interested in this work?''
I think the possibility of a global catastrophe is not all that remote. I also believe in design for robustness / repairability / modularity / adaptablity / salvageability as opposed to making things cheap enough that they can be just chucked out when they lose their entertainment value.

*''Are you interested in teaching about the GVCS?''
No

*Are you interested in economic relocalization possibilities arising from the GVCS?'
Yes

*''Do you want to use the GVCS technologies yourself? Do you want to build them yourself?''
I'd love to try out all the machines, but I don't have any specific recurring need for any of them. I'd love to build them too but I don't have the space or facilities - I live in a city.

*''Are you interested in starting up enterprise using the GVCS technologies?''
I have no specific need currently, but if ever one arises then yes I'd love to have my own tractor / reprap.

*''Are you interested in having the GVCS technologies fabricated by your local custom fabricator?''
I have no specific need currently, but if ever one arises then yes I'd love to have my own tractor / reprap.

*''Are you interested in applying the GVCS to third world development? To redevelopment of crisis areas? To development of derelict areas in the developed world?''
Yes

*''Are you interested in starting up Industry 2.0 flexible fabrication enterprises for your local community, by drawing from a global repository of freely down-loadable designs and fabricating using open source fabrication equipment?''
Yes

*''Are you interested in the potential of the GVCS for developing local food systems?''
Yes

*''Are you interested in doing academic studies/papers, publishing books, or doing other analysis of our efforts?''
No

*Are you interested in financial investment opportunities arising from our work?
Yes

*''Are you interested in the distributive economic aspects of our work, and if so, how do you see this playing out?''
Yes. I think it's an important component of resilience.

*''Are you interested in building renewable energy production facilities based on open hardware (solar concentrator electric, wind, biomass power).''
Interested but not in any position to do so

*''Are you interested in building resilient communities based on access to the GVCS?''
Yes

*''Are you interested in creating a bug-out hut using GVCS technologies?''
Yes

*''How do you think that the GVCS can help alleviate the instabilities of global monetary systems?''
By building self-sufficient communities based on skills that matter rather than on the skill of using money to make money or on any "knowledge economy"

*''How do you think that the GVCS can address issues related to resource conflicts?''
The answer to this question is complex enough to form several PhD theses.

*''How do you think that the GVCS can address issues of overpopulation?''
By enabling the planet to become more homogenously populated. But I do believe that there is an absolute limit to how many homo sapiens this ball of rock can house and feed, even if we all live at maximum efficiency.

*''How do you think that the GVCS can address issues of resource depletion and environmental degradation?''
By making people live in more direct contact with their physical environment, by making them realise how much effort and energy goes into manufacturing the objects they take for granted.

*''Other comments''

==='''WHAT'''===
*''What have you already contributed to the OSE project? (technical contributions, blogging about us, financial support, organizing events, translations, interviews, video editing, publications, publicity work, behind-the-scenes work, CAD work, wiki contributions, computer support, etc)''
Nothing yet

'''Communications'''
*No

'''Organizational'''
*No

'''Computer Support'''
*No

'''Finances'''
*No

'''Sociology'''
*No

'''Home Economics'''
*Cooking - domestic experience only.

'''Design'''
*Solidworks

'''Building'''
*I have some machining experience but no access to equipment

'''Electronics and Magnetics'''
*No

'''Automation'''
*No

'''Metallurgy'''
*No

'''Engineering'''
*PhD in Mechanical Engineering, designed and built my high-speed-rotation test rig, experienced in mechanical design.

==='''HOW''' can you help?''===
*''How are you interested in contributing to the work of GVCS development?''
Mechanical design; producing technical drawings

*''Can you volunteer to work with us, and if so, how many hours per week?''
I can volunteer 4 hrs per week.

*''Are you interested in working with us for pay? If so, what services can you offer, and what is your hourly or per-project rate?''
If I'm required for more than 4 hrs per week, I'd like a pay of USD15 per hour.

*''Are you interested in purchasing equipment from us to help bootstrap development?''
I live in a city so most of the equipment is probably not applicable to my circumstances.

*''Are you interested in bidding for consulting/design/prototyping work?''
Yes

*''Are you a [http://openfarmtech.org/index.php?title=True_Fans True Fan]? If not, why not?''
Not enough income yet

*''Would you like to see yourself working with us on a full-time basis?''
Provisionally, yes

*''Are you interested in using the technologies that we are developing directly?''
Interested in trying out the machines but I live in a city so most of them are not applicable to my circumstances

*''Are you interested in being part of the world's first, open source, resilient community? The GVCS is the preparatory step for the OSE Village Experiment – a 2 year, immersion experiment (2013-2014) for testing whether a real, thriving, modern-day prototype community of 200 people can be built on 200 acres using local resources and open access to information? We are looking for approximately 200 people to fill a diverse array of roles, according to the Social Contract that is being developed. This may be the boldest social experiment on earth - a pioneering community whose goal is to extend the index of possibilities regarding harmonious existence of humans, ecology, and technology – as a beacon of light to benefit of all people on Earth.
Provisionally, yes
