We are looking for people who are interested in building the world's first replicable open source self-sufficient decentralized high appropriate tech permaculture ecovillage - to transcend survival and evolve to freedom.  


Please see [http://www.openfarmtech.org/weblog/ our weblog] for an online journal of theory in practice at our land-based facility: [[Factor e Farm]].
[[Open Source Ecology]] is a movement dedicated to the collaborative development of [[GVCS tools|tools]] for replicable, open source, modern off-grid "resilient communities." By using [[:Category: OSA|permaculture]] and [[Open Source Fab Lab|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]]."

The [[Open Source Ecology]] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiki Wiki] is dedicated to the [[collaborative development]] of a basic and robust open source high appropriate tech infrastructure of technology and permaculture for a local economy based 'Global Village', as embodied in the list of the products and services of the [[Global Village Construction Set]]. This 'village' is ''inherently:''

*grounded in self-sufficiency
title="Open Source Ecology Wiki"
*dedicated to voluntary pursuits, [[right livelihood]], and quality of life
description="Open Source Ecology is a movement dedicated to the collaborative development of tools for replicable, open source, modern off-grid resilient communities."
Our basic assumption for a 'Global Village' is that humans are capable of transcending the struggle for survival and resource conflicts, where this preoccupation is replaced by higher pursuits of personal and societal evolution. [[OSE Brochure|Read more]].

See brief video introduction to our work - The Global Village Construction Set in 2 Minutes

LifeTrac, one of the first technologies in the "Global Village Construction Set"

Updates on the ground are found at the Factor e Farm blog.

Open Source Ecology is a movement dedicated to the collaborative development of tools for replicable, open source, modern off-grid "resilient communities." By using permaculture and 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 a sustainable and pleasant standard of living could be reduced to the cost of scrap metal + labor. There is immense potential for social transformation once this technology is fully developed for building interconnected self-sufficient communities, since people will be freed from material constraints and able to seek self-actualization.

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. Our means of achieving these goals are meticulously detailed in the "Global Village Construction Set" and the OSE Proposal.

As far as we know, this is a one of a kind project, but we hope to change that. If there is indeed another project like ours, please tell us about it.
