I'm working with Open Source Hardware to extend our outreach and attract a new crop of developers, designers, and collaborators. Our ultimate goal is to produce an open source library of all of the machinery necessary to start an entire civilization from scratch. We're marching steadily towards that goal by developing open source designs that can be implemented by farmers, tinkerers, makers, and entrepreneurs right now. We've already built our own 3D printers, tractors, brick makers, and even a small house, built for comfort, efficiency, and sustainability, as well as many other tools.

Hello Doc Searls and the FLOSS Weekly team,

Let's talk FLOSH! Free Libre Open Source Hardware. I hope your listeners will find the idea as fascinating as I do.

I'm working with Open Source Hardware to extend our outreach and attract developers. Our ultimate goal is to produce an open source library of all of the machinery necessary to start an entire civilization from scratch. We're marching steadily towards that goal by developing open source designs that can be implemented by makers, engineers, farmers, and entrepreneurs right now. We've already built our own 3D printers, tractors, brick makers, and even a small house, built for comfort, efficiency, and sustainability, as well as many other tools.

Please see our founder, Marcin Jakubowski's, presenting on the Global Village Construction Set in his TED Talk - https://www.ted.com/talks/marcin_jakubowski_open_sourced_blueprints_for_civilization

We also run STEAM camps where we teach collaborative design for technogy that matters:

Would you be interested in doing a podcast with our Founder? If you think your listeners would like to find out more about our progress on creating distributed manufacturing and the open source economy, please consider having our founder, Marcin, as a guest on your show. We are bringing Free Libre Open Source philosophy to the world of hardware and industrial capability, so if you'd like to hear more about our latest efforts, and implications for future abundance, please let us know.

Please let me know if you have any questions at all.
