Treatment: Call out for the big picture no holds barred, invite long term commitment and lifelong learning, seek huge ambition in humility for service and stewardship to serve the world. Level the playing field and create abundance.
Do you want to create a new civilization? Tne based on true collaboration, a democratic society, and a level playing field with transparency and abundance? With the world changing faster than ever before, we are up to the challenge.
Welcome to the world of open source ecology. In 2008, we came up with the concept of the Global Village Construction Set - a set of 50 tools and machines needed for a modern standard of living - a civilization in a box that can be replicated inexpensively anywhere in the world. We prototyped dozens of these tools and machines, and are taking this to the finish line by 2028 - our stated 20 year timeline.
I finished my 20s with a ph.d. in plasma physics - and discovered - i was useless. I had no practical skills. I was certainly not going to work in any a soul crushing job or for some evil corporation. So i started a farm, in Missouri. Since then, after almost 20 years of this civilization reboot experiment, we are starting a school. A college-grade program in civilization construction.
We focus on the basics. You will learn how to learn, how to collaborate, and how to design. With deep purpose. Our goal is open source blueprints for civilization - everything from a home, a tractor, and a spaceship. The goal is abundance for everybody - the final transition of humanity from a scarcity mindset to a world of open collaboration. Inspired by the ideas of open source - we want to level the playing field for everyone.
It will not be easy. So we are calling out for you - at the point of high school or equivalent education - to join a community of transformers and future stewards. The stakes are high - with civilization on its path to the technological singularity - we are calling out for a humanistic singularity. Where people wake up to open collaboration as the new norm.
We do this by a work-study program - a commitment of 4 years. The program involves 40% of the time working - building affordable, ecological housing - and 60% in learning how to learn, learning how to design, and learning how to be a full human.
