OSE Hypotheses

• Raw ARC Thesis. Advanced regenerative civilization (ARC) is defined as a renewable energy, food shed and watershed improving civilization with modern technology. OSE proposes that an Advanced Regenerative Civilization is possible when infrastucture manifests as expertise-embedded, trasnsparent infrastructure that automatically enables any non-specialist user to learn and engage in productive activity. Such as growing beds to provide food, and fabrication facility to produce lifetime consumer goods. This means the infrastructure affords on-demand production by generally skilled stewards who don't do such production as specialists for a living. Otherwise, material flows become more global and not local, with additional energy and logistics requirements. And if the infrastructure doesn't teach production, then the opportunity for direct economic production is reduced, at the cost of added dependence on financial systems. The goal of the local production is maximum autonomy (including financial independence), mastery (freedom to learn new things), and purpose (freedom from an alienating job).
