*5.1.09 - [http://openfarmtech.org/weblog/?p=797 LifeTrac in MAKE Magazine] - We were recently featured in MAKE Magazine. Thank you to Abe Connally of Vela Creations, who wrote the article.

I say to all those who are actually taking up this opportunity, all the power to you. The idea is, if you can generate the money to create the system, you will reap the benefits forever."

This is the largest and most advanced single project I'm aware of for putting that philosophy into practice."
 
*11.27.08 - [http://www.gaiaemerging.com/search?q=open+source+ecology Greg Landua, Global Village Institute at The Farm] - "This is the bright iridescent future of a global sustainable village, un-tethered by the soul sucking vacuum of neoliberal globalization. Combining ecology and open source ideas, the folks at Open Source Ecology seem to have hit the nail on the head...a well articulated vision for enabling communities all over the planet to partake in global trade of information goods and services, but not be forced into the prisoner's delima of globalized corporate capitalism."

As personal fabrication improves, these tinkering efforts will become MUCH more sophisticated at an ever decreasing cost. We (collectively, those of us engaged in decentralized thinking/action) are in the process of reinventing how the global economy is structured at a root level -- good thing we didn't ask permission."
