The OSE immersion curriculum is a deep dive into soft and hard skills of making a better world, framed within the work of open source ecology.

Schedule Overview

The course is a deep learning immersion based on experiential learning. The weekly schedule involves class time, hands-on builds, and participation in public Extreme Manufacturing (XM) Workshop on site or at other locations. As a result, immersion program trainees will gain extensive experience in preparing and running the XM workshops. Successful completion - or graduating to become OSE Fellows - means that the OSE Fellows will run these workshops on in different locations, while engaging in full time development work with OSE.

  • Week 1 - survey of OSE development techniques - the OSE Boot Camp.
  • Week 2 -

  • Understanding the calculations and design principles of the modular Universal Axis system and resulting machines.
  • Understanding admissible parts for design
  • Ability to use FreeCAD part libraries and design guides to make design iterations and upgrades to the existing machines

  • Ability to identify and reaching out to Subject Matter Experts (SMEs)
  • Ability to assess the development status of other existing open source projects

  • Ability to teach Extreme Manufacturing Workshops to a group of participants
  • Ability to invite SMEs to a development process
  • Ability to produce explainer videos and teaching videos with title screen, subtitles, and links.

Week 1 - OSE Boot Camp

See Open Source Microfactory Boot Camp

Week 2

  • Open and Public 101 - starting in Greece, ideals of freedom have carried on to democracy, transparency, public interest, and in the 21st century - Distributive Enterprise.
  • Building a 3D Printer 1
  • FreeCAD + 3D Printer Design
  • OSPD - modularity etc
  • Marlin
  • Octoprint
  • Cura
  • Open Source Microfactory - Index of Possibilities. OSE Rules of Engagement - no whining. Pragmatic approach.
  • You 101. Before transforming the world, youust transform yourself. Habits of happiness. Positive psychology - learned optimism. Personal and political ponerology. Health, sleep, food. Human augmentation. Augmented learning: speed reading, memory boost, book summaries, emptying the mind, smart drugs, understanding world class quality in all disciplines. Integrated humans. Busyness paradox. Happiness. You 101 - all types of assessments for ability, mindset, capacities, personality, disposition, etc. Saying 'impossible' is nonnegotiable - you can only judge whether something is worth it - and to make that assessment requires more thought than a lazy 'it's impossible'.
  • World 101. Green history of the world. Medium of transformation. What has humanity learned to date about peace and prosperity, to allow people to thrive in balance with natural life support systems? What are the best proven institutions to date? Scientific method. If we attain that, where are we likely to go from here? The Better Angels of Our Nature. Homo Deus. Leviathan. Tax. War. Death. Freedom. Economy. Health & Medicine. Law. Cooperation. Governance. Getting along with one another: worldly education, responsibility (self vs God, cause and effect), science vs fiction, Homo Deus. Tipping Point. Seasteading.
  • One Day MBA. Leadership 101 - you can't be an asshole including to yourself, and two, you need a skill set - which is not born but learned. Influence and personal power. Tipping point. Basic rules of communication: As King, and NVC. Personal to political transformation. Institutions of the economy and survey of economic thought. Size of the economy. The open source economy. Accounting, legal, operations, recruiting, marketing. Open ledgers. Open source product development. Vivid Vision. IQ, emotional intelligence, entrepreneurial quotient (EQ]
  • Psychology, Self-Determination Theory. Logic - mental models and general Semantics, information theory, numeracy, mental models. How people think and how they behave. Esteem. Empathy. Peak performance. Mastery. Growth mindset. Top grading. Debunking myths in different sectors. Generally accepted as true. Energy, environment, resources, and society.
