This is part of what led me to start a group called Open Source Ecology- '''(OSE slide)''' a social enterprise. We have identified the 50 most important machines that it takes to build a small civilization with modern comforts. This includes everything from a tractor, to an oven, to a circuit maker. We call this the Global Village Construction Set '''(blue GVCS Icons Slide)'''. This is an open source civilization starter kit - a life-size lego set '''(picture of legos)''' - that allows a farmer, a builder, an entrepreneur - to lower the barriers to distributed production. '''(open business models slide)''' We are a collaborative open platform that provides access to know-how and tools which allow individuals to achieve material security, autonomy and abundance. '''(economic progression from primitive to industrial to post-scarcity economy)'''

Absolutely nothing...if we don't count:

#Innumerable speaking, collaboration, and media opportunities. My favorites are Huffington Post Best of TED 2011 '''(slide)''' and Time Magazine Best Inventions of the Year 2012. '''(SLIDE)'''


We have continued our development - from 8 different machines built at the time of TED '''(show graph up to 2012)'''- to 65 prototypes from the construction set and over a dozen replications from our open blueprints - in 5 countries around the world.

So what now? Last year was certainly a bunch of growing pains, and now we're trying to stabilize the organization. Adrian Hong, '''(slide)''' Senior TED Fellow Emeritus, is helping us structure and onboard a solid executive team. We are recruiting an Operations Manager and Product Lead, Documenter, and Community Manager.  We would like to scale to 144 enterprise incubators and open source economy development centers ('''zooming in on small civilization slide''')- all working to train people and provide revenue and products for use. We want an efficient open economy that accelerates innovation and creates a sustainable future for as many people as possible, as fast as possible. ('''Victor Hugo Slide''')
