Product Ecology

We are developing an appropriate technology set of products using the method of open source neocommercialization. We aim to deploy these products via flexible and digital fabrication, where appropriate. The following diagram lists the seven main project areas. These project areas fill the basic needs of seven major sectors of the economy: food, energy, housing, fuel, transportation, materials, and fabrication. You can read more about our program in our 3 year proposal.
