A Polish-American who is starting a new civilization -- from scratch -- in the Midwestern US. Marcin came to the U.S. from Poland as a child. He graduated with honors from Princeton and earned his PhD in fusion physics from the University of Wisconsin. Frustrated with the lack of relevance to pressing world issues in his education, he founded Open Source Ecology in 2003 in order to make closed-loop manufacturing a reality. He began development on the Global Village Construction Set (GVCS) (see his 2011 TED Talk), an open source DIY tool set of 50 different industrial machines necessary to create a small civilization with modern comforts.
His work has recently been recognized in his acceptance as a 2012 TED Senior Fellow, a 2012 Shuttleworth Foundation Fellow, and his TED Talk was named the top 6th in the Huffington Post Best of TED 2011. His goal is to create the open source economy - an economy that optimizes both production and distribution - while providing environmental regeneration and social justice. To this end, Marcin is currently building a team of global collaborators and on-site builders for his land-based facility - to take this from concept to reality.

Agriculture Director - Gabrielle LeBlanc

Gabrielle (Gabi) has been on-site at Factor e Farm since June, 2012. Gabi hails from California, where she grew up and went to school for animal science, with an emphasis on livestock and dairy. During and after school she worked at various community gardens, ranches, and farms. Her life's passion is healing the earth through land stewardship and responsible food production. She is an expert wiki changer, yet is unaware that we're onto her.
Gabi is at Factor e Farm to create a template for subsistent agriculture; developing and maintaining an ecosystem that produces sufficient food, fiber, medicine, and fuel for the Global Village. Towards this end, here's what she's done so far:
- Gotten a cow on-site for off-grid dairy production
- Begun a rabbit dynasty for off-grid meat
- Developed garden space
- Begun soil amendment in the orchard to increase yields
- Designed a site map for future development of agriculture and human habitation
- Developed ways to use LifeTrac for agriculture
- Retrofitting attachments to make the mower, rake, and baler usable for baling hay
- Designing and fabricating subsoil blades for keyline plowing
- Planning for the future of subsistent agricultural development
- Perrenial planting
- Hedgelines and edible fencelines
- Propagation of useful native plants
- Self-funding business model to sustain Gabi's living on-site
- Waterworks and developed irrigation

It is easy and natural for you to accept responsibilities, to lead a rather ordered life, and to apply caution in your financial and business dealings. You rarely jump to conclusions or take uneducated risks. You have a certain amount of patience and enough self-discipline to slowly but surely achieve what you set out to do. Although somewhat undemonstrative, you are generally loyal and responsible people to those you care about. You take your time in most endeavors and generally use a step-by-step approach to most projects--but you steadily reach your goals. You are naturally trustworthy, and you don't have much patience for those who don't show respect for others, who take foolish risks, and who lead disorganized lives.
