INTERESTS
I have a passion for lifelong learning, the outdoors and revitalizing the urban environment. I remain engaged in my community and have served as a volunteer or board member for several organizations.


WHY are you motivated to support/develop this work?

  • Do you endorse open source culture?

Yes.

  • Why are you interested in collaborating with us?

I am particularly interested in the applicability of the OSE model in the urban environment.

  • How do you think that the GVCS can address pressing world issues?

If the GVCS proves extensible, scalable and accessible it has the potential to be a valuable tool in addressing pressing economic, social and environmental issues.

  • What should happen so that you become more involved with the project?

A commitment by OSE participants to remain as true as possible to the open source model.

  • What are you missing in the project?

A clear sense of how the work being done in a rural setting can be ported to an urban setting where socio-economic realities are quite different, and where building, zoning and other regulatory issues might limit the OSE model.

  • What are your suggestions for improvement of the project?

Unsure at the moment.

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

Organizational, communications, finances, construction

  • How have you already contributed to the project?


HOW can you help?

  • How are you interested in contributing to the work of GVCS development?

I am interested in helping to facilitate the organizational and financial development of the project.

  • Can you volunteer to work with us, and if so, how many hours per week?


  • 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?



  • Are you interested in purchasing equipment from us to help bootstrap development?


  • Are you interested in bidding for consulting/design/prototyping work?



  • Would you like to see yourself working with us on a full-time basis?


  • Are you interested in using the technologies that we are developing directly?


  • 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.
