Hi Marcin,
I would like to begin by saying that I support what you are doing and believe in
your general goals.  However, I do have some advice/criticism.
In rhetoric and skills, the work you are doing differs from familiar "back to
the land" movement projects, but it is difficult to see a significant
difference in what you have actually done.  Your main focus seems to have been
(understandably) developing your own space and home and the tools that help you
to do that.  What I am waiting to see and would be more open to actively
supporting is: actual open source hardware projects which means having detailed
plans, instructions, documentation and a way for people to contribute on their
own time; outreach to get people who need and want this technology started; a
way that other people can benefit from your work in their own environment.
I realize that you are very much still in an experimental phase with what you
are doing, so these things are probably just a bit out of your reach right now.
I am also slightly turned off by your by some of your rhetoric.  Creating terms
like "Factor 10 engineering" seems like a distraction.  One, anything that you
are buying from a large company is already at least 4-6 times more expensive
than the production cost.  Add this that you are making very trimmed down,
simple designs on your own, and it is unsurprising that you achieve these
costs.  This is DIY.
I am wary of ideas like "buying out at the bottom".  It seems like you advocate
dropping out of society.  I want to know how we build up society.  How does
this play out in an urban environment?  I want to enrich my community, not
leave it and go start a farm; how do I do that?  Ultimately, you are only able
to do what you do because of the historical steps our society has gone through,
so do not marginalize yourself.
I think you should spend more time talking about what you have done and what
people can do right now rather than talking about what you want to do.  I see
lot of trying to convince people of your ideas or outlining this "ecology" on
your website.  Saying things like "And we'll have cheap solar energy" sounds
good, but it does not mean much.  I have seen several people talk about
building systems like the one you are planning, but you can not simply say
"we'll have a good solution for storing energy" because you don't and it is not
easy.
These are just some quick thoughts and could be articulated better.  Please take
this as helpful criticism and not an insult to your work at all.  Best of luck
to you.
