Overview
The True Fans Hangouts offer broad-scale discussion on the state of the world as seen through the eyes of open source development. Open source means unbridled transparency, and sharing of information, and collaboration. These hangouts begin with big-vision ideals - then descent to the Earth in terms of practical action for getting there.
OSE's goal is to create the open source economy. The current economy appears to be about $100T total. Our model of transformation calls for a fraction of this economy turning into the open source economy - about 5%, at which point, either a cascade of further open source culture ensues to create a predominantly open source economy - or the world collapses as non-regenerative practice continues with events like topsoil loss, or continued growth of wealth disparity.
Is open source synonymous with life, as opposed to demise? The specific feature of interest in open source is the sharing of knowledge - which appears to be the most secure route to unleashed innovation and freedom. It is the beginning of the potential for post-scarcity economics - transcendence of artificial scarcity and transition to abundance - of energy, or education, of life-giving forces. Give me open source - or give me death.
Competitive waste, protectionism, keeping others down, not cooperating - that's how people make money. By necessity, this keeps people down - as best practice is replaced by enforced mediocrity.
Back to the Earth...
Our practical projects for this year involve those workshops featured on the Schedule page - and releases of 3 products. These products include the Brick Press, Aquaponic Greenhouse, and 3D Printer. With these, we aim to generate revenue by Sales - hiring our first Production Education Managers. These people are Production Managers - who also Educate others to be Production Managers. That could be a robust enterprise model that has a significant earning potential of manufacturing several machines per month and teaching several students per month - for $10k/month earning levels.
Over 120 people signed up for the Aquaponics Working Team at the Permaculture Voices (PV 2) conference - including subject matter experts in just about ALL critical areas for project success. This constitutes the largest, most skilled team that OSE has ever assembled on any single project to date. We had an initial meeting at PV 2 a day after my talk, which about 30 people participated. So we are moving forward with the Aquaponics.
We are rolling with the Aquaponics greenhouse - due to the large potential in the team - now by building relationships with the 30 people that made the meeting after my talk.
Then our plan is to deploy the CEB Press working Team as we move towards final Product Release.
