[[Open Source Ecology]] is a movement dedicated to the collaborative development of a [[Global Village Construction Set|Global Village Construction Set]] for replicable, open source, modern off-grid resilient communities. By using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permaculture permaculture] and [[:Category:Digital Fabrication|digital fabrication]] together to provide for basic needs and open source methodology to allow low cost replication of the entire operation, we hope to empower anyone who desires to move beyond the struggle for survival and [[evolve to freedom]].

By our analysis, most of the technologies needed for an ecological, sustainable and pleasant standard of living could be reduced to the cost of scrap metal + labor. Once this technology is fully developed, there is immense potential for social transformation in building interconnected self-sufficient communities.

We understand that this is an ambitious task, but we have accomplished much and are making rapid progress. [[Factor e Farm]] is the land-based facility where we are putting this theory into practice. You can check out the latest updates of our progress on the [http://openfarmtech.org/weblog/ Factor e Farm blog]. More detailed information about the vision, purpose, and goals of Open Source Ecology can be found in the [[OSE Proposal]].
 
As far as we know, this is a one of a kind project, but we hope to change that. If you know about another project like ours, please  [[contact us|tell us about it]].

Introduction

Open Source Ecology is a network of farmers, engineers, and supporters that has been imagining and creating the Global Village Construction Set, an open source, low-cost, high performance technological platform. These DIY-fabricated industrial machines can be used to build a sustainable civilization with modern comforts. The GVCS lowers the barriers to entry into farming, building, and manufacturing. It is a life-size lego-like set of modular tools that can create entire economies.

True Fans

Mark Norton

A friend of my pointed me at Marcin's TED talk. After watching it, there was no turning back. I've been fascinated by the Maker movement for years now but never quite had the motivation to jump in, in spit of being handy with tools. I live on a small farm (Phase 3 Farm) that my wife and I are turning into a self-sufficient homestead that we hope will supply all of out needs one date. Farms need tools and it struck me that the GVCS was a great way to get what I needed - by literally building them myself. By profession, I am a software developer and I've worked on several major open source efforts over the years, so I understand quite well why the work of OSE is so important and also some of the challenges it faces, especially around sustainability. As such, I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is and became a True Fan. (more...)

LifeTrac is a low-cost, multipurpose open source tractor. It serves as a workhorse backbone for many of GVCS technologies.

Featuring a modular design and detachable PowerCube units, it has the ability to rapidly switch between a variety of GVCS machines via the QA Plate. The machine is overbuilt with a focus on lifetime design and easy of repair.

Four hydraulic motors provide skid steer power to the wheels, and a unique chain tread system enables navigation of fairly extreme terrain. (more...)
