'''Biography'''
 
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 before shifting direction and starting a hydroponic vegetable farm in Madison, WI. Lacking real experience in practical matters, he then began his education from scratch, and in 2003 he founded Open Source Ecology in order to make closed-loop manufacturing a reality. He began development on the [[Global Village Construction Set]] (GVCS), an open source DIY tool set of 50 different industrial machines necessary to create modern civilization. OSE has prototyped 8 machines and intends to build everything from an induction furnace for melting metals to an open source combine.
