Oekonux 4 OSE Presentation

  • Slide 1 - Building the World's First, Replicable, Open Source, Off-Grid Global Village
  • Slide 2 - Main Idea - Everyone can Seize Economic Power via Production
    • End of the Welfare State - people become producers, or at least closer to the means of production
    • End of Resource Conflicts - you don't need to steal when you are self sufficient on NEEDS by local production
    • End of Scarcity - by opening up your mind and skilling yourself can we transcend to abundance - a rigorous condition of skill and wisdom
    • Promise: unprecedented quality of life and emergent small-scale republics as present system breaks at the seams
  • Slide 3 - Who and what are we?
    • Farm, gene bank
      • Pix of orchard, propagation nursery, chicks, goats, cordwood,
    • Fab Lab, flexible fabrication
    • Experiential learning center
    • Open Source Product Development Center - organizers and revolutionaries
    • Number of movements in one: localization, free state, open source economy, bioregionalism, voluntary simplicity, technological progressivism, indigenous wisdom, gene bank, community supported manufacturing, experiential learning
    • First replicable, open source, global village in the making
  • Slide 4 - how do we operate?
    • Develop and optimize a small but SUFFICIENT set of technologies for unprecedented QOL, with right livelihood, ecological integrity.
    • We are engaging a scalable, open source product development pipeline, that can be mainstreamable
  • Slide 5 - What is this set - explain it as an ecology of icons - FEH plus fab
    • Up for debate whether this set is sufficient
    • Items not included are pretty much available
  • Slide 6 - explain fabrication aspects. Key - self-replicable program
  • Slide 7 - OSE Specifications - replicability, and need.
  • Slide 8 - What we have done
    • Tractor proto
    • CEB proto, bricks, building
    • Orchard-goat-chicken-garden-facility
    • Designs - lathe, torch table, microtrac, sawmill
  • Slide 9 - OSE Product Cycle - scalable
  • Slide 10 - needs: OSDR, Fans
  • Slide 11 -


You need to provide needs (an economy) - food, energy, housing, plus technology - then you build culture, social organization (peer governance, means of exchange), out with kleptocracy, funny money system

  • Slide 3 - Past work - land base, food/housing - tractor + CEB infastructure
    • CEB pallets, CEB pressing, tiller, backhoe, balespike, tooth bar,
  • Slide 4 - Present - saw mill/pulverizer/torch table/lathe/microtrac/incubator
  • Slide 5 - Main Present near-term goal - 3 month - close the food/energy/housing loop based on local ecology - 3000 brick per day CEB/3000 bf/d sawmill - tractor running on local pyrolysis oil with a steam engine
    • Details: Lathe and torch table open sourced
    • RepRap variant for fabbing grafting tools, etc
  • Slide 6 - Food/energy/housing Product Ecology
  • Slide 7 - That's all boring. What's the real story?
    • Veritable open engineering method to be developed
    • Challenge - beyond any known collab paradigm, physical plant necessary
    • Main challenge - peoples' conceptions
  • Slide 8 - What have we shown?
    • 10x reduction in price
    • Fungability via crowd source after technical due diligence is performed
  • Slide 9 - Present approach to open engineering
    • Limits of volunteers
    • Facility inadequacy in a bootstrap effort
      • Voluntary lifestyle of reinventing everything in infrastructure - as part of the experimetn
    • Latest news - working with bidding process and professionals at pay; due diligence for crowd funding - is this replicable/scalable to a full development platform
  • Slide 10 - Do the due diligence - crowd fund it
  • Slide 11 - Background infrastructure
    • Low-cost of living
    • Publicity network - social network, Guardian, Wired, BoingBoing
    • Exponential growth on blog, YouTube
    • Ecological technology development - Marcin
    • 3D and tech due diligence - Jeremy
  • Slide 12 - Full package: 3D design - CAM software - CAE - OSE Database
  • Slide 13 - Econ Model
    • Welfare: True Fans, Crowdsource
    • Production: May 1
  • Slide - Big Hit - May 1 - production - first complete product cycle
