| ==='''WHY''' are you motivated to support/develop this work?===
| |
| *''Do you endorse open source culture?''
| |
| I certainly do! My only concern is that those who participate in open source be able to make a living somehow. Until we have a sharing economy, those working on open source technologies will be taken advantage of by the consumer. (Of course, if the person doing the work is fine with that, then who am I to say them nay?)
| |
|
| |
| *''Why are you interested in collaborating with us?''
| |
| I firmly believe that the GVCS will allow us to participate in a tribal community culture, strengthening ties between people and going beyond the nuclear family as a societal unit. I also fervently hope for a sustainable future without regressing to an entirely subsistence level.
| |
|
| |
| *''How do you think that the GVCS can address pressing world issues?''
| |
| The GVCS can provide communities worldwide with the tools needed to support a medium-tech first world lifestyle, while making this lifestyle sustainable.
| |
|
| |
| *''What should happen so that you become more involved with the project?''
| |
| I would like to help with the legal and administrative side. I have incorporated one 501(c)(3) organization, and would like to assist OSE in incorporation and in corporate management. (Not corporate in the negative sense-- just in running the project within the parameters of US law.)
| |
|
| |
| *''What are you missing in the project?''
| |
| I don't have enough experience with building and prototyping to tell if anything is missing.
| |
|
| |
| *''What are your suggestions for improvement of the project?''
| |
| Again, I'm not experienced enough to offer ideas.
| |
|
| |
| ==='''WHAT'''===
| |
| *''List all of your skills in these areas: Communications - Organizational - Computer Support - Finances - Design - Natural Building - Electronics - Automation - Metallurgy - Engineering - Fabrication - Agriculture - Energy - Architecture - Video/Graphics/Art - PR/Marketing - Education - Construction - Industry - CNC - Chemistry - Product Design - Other''
| |
| Education, Organizational legal management.
| |
|
| |
| *''How have you already contributed to the project?''
| |
| I am a True Fan at the base level.
| |
|
| |
| ==='''HOW''' can you help?''===
| |
| *''How are you interested in contributing to the work of GVCS development?''
| |
| I would like to assist in incorporating the non-profit organization, and provide any other legal or organizational help that I can.
| |
|
| |
| *''Can you volunteer to work with us, and if so, how many hours per week?''
| |
| Hours will vary, but I certainly am volunteering my time.
| |
|
| |
| *''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?''
| |
| No, I wish to offer my services on a volunteer basis only. This is my contribution to open source.
| |
|
| |
| *''Are you interested in [http://openfarmtech.org/wiki/Dedicated_Project_Visit Dedicated Project Visit]?''
| |
| I would love to visit the project, but I do not have enough leave from my day job to spend a month at the site. In addition, I'm not sure how much I could contribute onsite beyond unskilled labor.
| |
|
| |
| *''Are you interested in purchasing equipment from us to help bootstrap development?''
| |
| I'm not in a financial position to do that at this time.
| |
|
| |
| *''Are you interested in bidding for consulting/design/prototyping work?''
| |
| No
| |
|
| |
| *''Are you a [http://openfarmtech.org/wiki/True_Fans True Fan]? If not, why not?''
| |
| I am indeed!
| |
|
| |
| *''Would you like to see yourself working with us on a full-time basis?''
| |
| No. My skills are not required on a full-time basis.
| |
|
| |
| *''Are you interested in using the technologies that we are developing directly?''
| |
| Yes! It's my hope that once the GVCS is fully developed, and we are able to acquire the necessary land, my team and I will be able to use the plans to create our own village.
| |
|
| |
| *''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.
| |
| I am not sure I could do this and still meet my financial obligations. I'm also not sure that my skillset would be needed. If I could, I would absolutely love to.
