Oekonux 4 OSE Presentation
In this presentation, I will tell:
- Introduce that we are building a replicable Global Village
- GVCS
- So, You want to build a village?
- You'll need to start with an economy. Food.
- Building.
- Energy.
- Fab
- Is it an economy? Yes, all tools are productive
- Show productivity - ag, fab
- How do we know? We've done a bunch of experiments already. Ag, fab - tractor + CEB
- Closed Energy cycle - from Mathew
- In fact, this constitutes an economy/money system
- Wait a minute? It would take too long to make this happen.
- We will offer immersion training,
- Cost analysis:
- LifeTrac infrastructure- $25k and about 6 months labor, vs $250k plus $25k yearly costs of depreciation
- Food infrastructure- $3k stock, plus $50k in ousourced labor ($50/hour at 40 hr weeks for 28 weeks with heavy equipment)
- One man year for eternal freedom? Case for BOAB
- Impossible? How about 1-year immersion training?
- Transformative economics - CSP, at cost production
- Transformative economics - Closing the industrial divide
- Transformative economics - local fuel
- Transformative economics - NGO, private contract, your own economy, your own money, transparency by documenting production
- Challenges - 90% slavery per individual; slavery is voluntary
- Transitional movement - check out, and invest in a real future
- Where are we now? CEB press, towards product release - to close off accountability cycle?
- Collaboration - much more challenging
- Crowd funding - quite successful; workshop is paid for
- Conclusions - There is a small and robust set, that is replicable if it's open source.
- Subscribe, or tell us what we're missing.
- Who we are? Farm, os product developer, fab lab developer
- What have we done theoretically? GVCS
- What have we done practically? Tractor and CEB
- Part of a bigger package:
- Fab
- Tractor
- OS Agroecology - we know permaculture, but now we have a key to its replicability
- Gene stock
- Equipment
- Why is it important?
- Innovative biz model for econ transformation via at cost production - CSM
- New option - Buy out at the Bottom, skip on life of wage slavery
- Challenges - very low acceptance, of True Fans concept, very few people really want to be free
- Either can't comprehend/believe it because they don't have skill to comprehend/believe, or they want to be slaves?
- Huge liberatory and transformative potential.
- What are we doing currently? CEB press
- What are predicted practical implications?
- Closed energy cycle - Food, energy, fabrication, show diagram
- Closing of industrial divide, show diagram
- Solar Power System Ecology - sun/biofuel to liquid fuel/electricity
- Self-Replicability Potential
- Clear with open source agroecology, if you have nursery and gene bank
- Self-replicating machinery with Furnace, machining, and HydraRaptor
- Learnings that there is very little actual support, that it is slow
- There are many people super excited, but they don't have the skill, are in debt, suffer from the 90% tax on their life, or all of the above
- On the other hand, we have 9 people lined up by May, others are constantly knocking at our door, to the point that we have a $50 dollar first-time visitor fee
Slide1
- Slide Oekonux4 1 - Building the World's First, Replicable, Open Source, Off-Grid Global Village
Slide 1'
- Slide Oekonux4 1' - We propose the Global Village Construction Set and Lifestyle Engineering
Slide 1
- Slide Oekonux4 1 doubleprime - Some Examples
Slide 2
- Slide Oekonux4 2 - Infrastructure Set Sufficient for Creating Advanced Civilization
- End of Resource Conflicts by local sustainable production
- Abundance - a rigorous condition of skill and wisdom
- Promise: unprecedented quality of life and emergent small-scale republics
Slide 3
- So, you want to build a village?
- If you could, why not?
- Here are the tools
- Here are the skills to use them
Slide 4
- Slide Oekonux4 4 - You might want to start with a full economy. Agriculture, housing, energy, transportation, fuel, technology.
- It's all in there.
Slide 5
- Slide Oekonux4 5 - Start with Agriculture
Slide 6
- Slide Oekonux4 6 - Move on to Housing
Slide 7
- Slide Oekonux4 7 - Move to Energy Infrastructure
Slide 8
- Slide Oekonux4 8 - Move on to Fabrication
Slide 8 prime
- Slide Oekonux 4 8 prime - Several Unique Features of the GVCS
Slide 9
- Slide Oekonux4 9 - We are Engaged Actively in Building the Construction Set
- Tractor proto
- CEB proto, bricks, building
- Orchard-goat-chicken-garden-facility
- Designs - lathe, torch table, microtrac, sawmill
OSE Product Cycle - scalable
Slide 10
- Slide Oekonux4 10 - Building pictures
Slide 11
- Slide Oekonux4 11 - Agriculture
Slide 12
- Slide Oekonux4 12 - Next challenge is production
Slide13
- Slide Oekonux4 13 - At Cost Production
Slide14
- Slide Oekonux4 14 - Entire GVCS Constitutes an Economy
Slide16
- Slide Oekonux4 16 - Economic Analysis Without GVCS
- About $1M for infrastructure for a 30 person community (cheap)
Slide17
- Slide Oekonux4 17 - Economic Analysis with GVCS Available
- Sweat equity can be utilized for village replication (cheaper)
Slide18
- Slide Oekonux4 18 - Land Access is the Most Important Issue
Slide 19
- Slide Oekonux4 19 - GVCS is About Social Technology, not Hardware Technology
- Present strategy: Review/bid -> fund -> deploy&document
- Testing, production replication by on-site team
- Noone has cracked the collaborative hardware development nut
- Bids are a good strategy (such as OpenMusic), but careful analysis is required prior to bidding
- Present strategy: Review/bid -> fund -> deploy&document
Slide 20
- Slide Oekonux4 20 Open Source Design Rationale (OSDR) is Defined for a Particular Implementation
- Careful, point-by-point description to novice with high school education
- WikiPedia model is not easy to apply in our case, becuase of attention span requirements
- Break it down to 0-attention span chunks
Slide21
- Slide Oekonux4 21 - OSDR Standards
- Diagram of all design points
- OSE Specifications for guiding design principles
- Red Pages for development support
- Full explanation of points
- Diagram can be connected to 3D design
- 3D design annotated with BOM
- BOM spreadsheet
- Fab procedure
- Review/bid process based on Resource Map, involves experts
- Funding via open proposal writing, via OSDR content
- Status should be transparent by viewing OSDR content
Slide 22
- Slide Oekonux4 22 - GVCS Program is Transformative on Many Fronts
Slide 24
- Slide Oekonux4 24 - Summary
