| description = {{{OED-desc|A Polish-American who is starting a new civilization -- from scratch -- in the Midwestern US. Marcin came to the U.S. from Poland as a child. He graduated with honors from Princeton and earned his PhD in fusion physics from the University of Wisconsin. Frustrated with the lack of relevance to pressing world issues in his education, he founded Open Source Ecology in 2003 in order to make closed-loop manufacturing a reality. He began development on the Global Village Construction Set (GVCS) (see his 2011 TED Talk), an open source DIY tool set of 50 different industrial machines necessary to create a small civilization with modern comforts.  
| description = “The next trillion dollar economy is the open source economy. The advent of open source hardware brings with it new forms of production, lifestyle, and therefore, governance and institutions. The world as we know it today is being turned upside down.”


His work has recently been recognized in his acceptance as a [[2012 TED Senior Fellow]], a [[2012 Shuttleworth Foundation Fellow]], and his TED Talk was named the top 6th in the [[Huffington Post Best of TED 2011]]. His goal is to create the open source economy - an economy that optimizes both production and distribution - while providing environmental regeneration and social justice. To this end, Marcin is currently building a team of global collaborators and on-site builders for his land-based facility - to take this from concept to reality. He believes that the open source economy is a prerequisite to autonomy that allows people to pursue mastery - consistent with higher purpose.}}}
Marcin and collaborators are designing and building open source industrial machines and publishing the plans online for free. The set of the 50 machines is known as the [[Global Village Construction Set]], and is intended to lower the barriers for people and communities to build their own lives. Their challenge is economic sustainability of open enterprise – where open design and collaboration are inherent parts of the development process. Open Source Ecology is developing the Distributive Enterprise business model – an enterprise with not only open blueprints for products and services, but also open enterprise and operations blueprints – as part of their viral replicability criteria. The overarching goal is to develop a generalized framework for innovation – accelerated by open sharing of best practices – so problems are solved faster than they are created.
