  • I will start to create subtitle only after revision because save a partial work is not easy in universalsubtitle for what I've tryed to do. -paolo

(lucas)

  • ok, so transcript first! And I've moved this conversation to the front page. We'll move it back to the "talk" page once we're done.
  • Plan:
    • Review the transcript so that it's all good.
    • Cut it in short pieces of text.
    • Place the transcript in universal subtitles.
    • Translate into whatever languages.
    • If someone speaks out the translation, simply following the subtitles with the audio muted and speaking into a recorder, and sends an audio file, we can do overdubbing. (I've tried with the 2-minute video on GVCS and it worked well. Building on each other's work as usual.)

marcin jakubowski - part1

current project we will into right now is a food back currency and the key to having a food back currency weeffective is to broth perception the production's of food and the Marcin's project is about the technology that makes food production accessible to individuals and small groups and enable that broad-base production of food and the substitution so turn over

thanks a lot I'm glad to be here it Is more then just food we are talking about of all construction set for resilient community so the concept is simple here it's to organize the question what will happen if we took all that humanity has learned to date and apply it to make a better world? well, what is the answer to that? We think that it is the creation of resilient communities which are able to live off their local resources and the concept here that we are trying to talking about is miniaturization of civilization what are the limits as humans ((lucas)) can learn to apply modern technology to using the liberty the dirt and twigs behind their feet to create the full stuff the substance of civilization so given we have access to incredible technology today that's possible and here is ok come on before

let's start with some of the bases what are the constrains that we as human are faceing and humans work that's energy material and some of the key elements and that is information but what no the energy front when we talk about post scarcity let's begin with the fact that if we use modern technology with solar concentrator electric technology than the area required to power the entire united states will take only 0.3% ok let's start with that figure that's serious if we consider that that has huge implications so let's get really the notion of scarcity we'd like to operate from the point what other scared you have got some here , we're gonna try to appeal to the create of power humans have the ability to evolve as the motivation for doing this work

so if that's the case why isn't that happening? i can also tell you if that technology for example became open source which we have seen in the software model. if we extend that model to the production of physical hardware than we can talk about save five or ten fac of post redactiotion so say you take solar concentrator technology that exist today and you just open source it than we can be talking about that technology may be applicable not only to the south west of the united states but to the all the north America so let's move on to what happen behind energy's scarcity next.

so if you have access to energy than from abounded materials you can create the fix axes of civilization so i give you two examples: using improving processes you can take clay and you can smelt it into aluminum which is the substance of advanced civilization, or you can take sand and smelt it into silicon which is the digital age. so i put this picture here menacing a huge compromise. well so that's what happens today huge infrastructure big tracks roling out downer and eat down the mountain and a huge process well we can do the same think on a table top next if we have axes to energy so the point is that we have an advance civilization today this is an example of an open source project called reprap we called or we talk about start track replicator we called of replicator is an 3D printer open source that can print you all kinds of 3D object and guys noise have two small version of that of this of the device base on this so for example you can print things like: plan --- I can print out a grafting tool with which then I could graft apple threes for my orture thing like that you can also print plastic shoos if you wanna do that well this is the promise we've got this advance tecnology today we've to start to applicate next this is what we are doing we are seeing let's take a small subset of the all infrastructure which society uses to provide its food energy sheltar (farbisogno) tecnological production software and lets reinvented in an open source that is adaptable so is usable lifetime design that serves people that is lower cost lets talk about start bulding resilient comunity with that so these are some of the tools that we have that we are working on next what we are tolking about rebuilding this things this thinks this an example of an open source tractor life trac is the first prototipe is open design so you printable if you have the skills you can replicate it and you can build it move forward we bild an open source CNC tource table prototipe that's this are not a product relised yet it's at the prototype stage next this is one photo of the second prototype of the compress earth big press boo wich we have actually now took to the fool prodoct relise stage and we are showing prety mouch encredible resoults that's all news since them we achieve 16 bricks per minutes maximal production such that this machine that we can bild at 300 dolars in materials we get to the performance competetion with a makine 4000 6000 dolars this is a roboust bisnes model in there for example is we cach 4000 dollars for labre to produce one of this machine you can sell for 8000 this is what we are doing we have a first seller already so we demostrating that we would step in economy into this operatin....and the product we are making actually work next concept that we promote is open bisness model this is about developement for everybody so we are publiscing not only the plans but the way to produce the machines such as the fabrication procedure ergonomics of production materials sourceing and builting materials and so forth so thats the concept of an open source bisness models the concept is about replacing scarcity resources by working on your tecnology base by encresing your meens of production to a particular level you can take those under your feet and turn them into modern survival ok next the concept we propose is viral village that once we've this entire set peple can thake it and build build his comunity for real and we talk about the concept of resource-based economy the concept that you are using resource from your very environment like guys project, they talk about the resource based economy and they are more futuristic about it and more praticaly about it because we're doing that right now very --- if your natural resource use isn't check because of a natural feedback sistems than your papulation explosion wich we don't have a solution for jet things like that so by design if you have the local resilient comunityes thats all nature resilient is a sostenable regenerative and more than that wich we are talk about next this means that we wanna use local resources and this is our competitor and our point is that if buy building effective mean production we can do the same but on a much smaller scale this is an example of some rosberry from my place so we have got 30 acres parcel in cansas city area misery that's how we're working on our experiment so go forward as we mentioned there's no talk about compromise on quality of life no doomsday the scenarious required there is a very feautures tath we talk about neosubstances lifetime design in these to points autonomy for everybody --- let's move forward and one exencial axpet of this empire set is the flexible fabrication of infrustructure which contains a few basecs tools such as we've got welding this is your 3D printer CNC machining enduction --- thats the torch table thats the 3D printer just a number of basics tool that you can capitalize for this entire set is open source and cost about 20000 dolars but you can build up an incredible capacity to produce and that especially give a computer numerical controlls just computers system fabrication wich then you can download design from global sources and produced it localy which is a very powerfull concept for creating a local resilient economy.

little project called replab which means the open source version of the fablab for whoever here --- about that fabrication lab several robot tools that can built just about anythings so the tecological part we fill actualy is the easy part you have to start ask yourself about evolution of the uman being to first gain the skills and to gain as wearness of your mind and if this staff is possible to reconnect ourselves to other reason to a true meaning. those of things that were happened much more difficult. we are hoping on the tecnology to give us help. ok so go next Join us in this development is a totaly trasparent open proces we are looking for colaborators all times right now we have to people are facility thers third gay documentaty work for us this weak but we are little babyes and we have been on the land for three years

we done this prototypes first product relise but we are starting and we have praticaly anything yet ok so swich over to next paragraph this is my presentation giust for give you a brief overview and now we are going to talk more explicity about a sub set of only 8 of those 40 tecnology that you've saw in one of those pictures and how they can actually contribute to built a real economy real productive yes come on in, come on in wellcome so what we are doing now is taking a small subset of we had talk about just before and saying how we can actually create a real economy and real busines model operation program look like for creating that so take some key tecnology that is any is like I need to put a --- bacause in our opinion for what we have learned on experience to date the solution is write in front of our eyes it turns in kind of tecnology in kind of productivity give you selecting few of the key key tecolology such as the compress earth brick press the open source tracktor a full automatica sawmill for hight productivity 50 kilo watt wind turbine haying and baler adn pelletizer for make biomass full or base for other purposes modern steam cobine power system stim angens CNC torch table ok thats are hardware next let's tolk about the product. We can get bricks for constructions we can get food because by the way all of you will use a tractor because tractors produce your food write full construction lumber from the saw mill electricity fuel engine power fabrication capacity CNC torch table is one of the key components just with the torch table and the whelder and the joe press tools that cost about 3000 dollars you can put together all of this so this package is replicating and self replicating if you have computer system and authomation to that so we already know that your food system like plans and animals are self replicating --- with modern tecnology ok let's we move forward the impact are profound you talk go back go back we are really talking about sufficiency total suficiency in your food housing energy electicity and fuel and prodoctivw economy is like is allmost redikiulous but this small set of tools can give you a lot of different power so move on

as far as the people take you take 5 to 10 people you take your architect/builder farmer sustainable forester engineer where the engineer defines the guide how runs the steem engens now custom fabricator and put this people on a parcel of land let them go to work and create a robust economy ok let's move forward yea that's good so if you just teak for example the custom fabricator you can produce all of this at those above material cost on the material cost so take about 31000 dollars in material pluses skill custum fabricator and you can replicate this entire set for earning in terms of economy go forward if we talk about productivity from fabrication like we demostrated with the compress earth big press we talk about 5000dollars for about 2 weeks of fabrication for CEB press same price to the tractor maybe the sawmill save the win torbine gives you a conserve of 10 dollars of energy per day the pelatizer and bellingof eight to make few pellets for stimy engines which are an external combustion engine you burn a fuel, you generate you turn in engines to generate electricity well the economics of that we saved munch up about six of those large bells, you get about 3000 dollars worth of fuel eqivalent from 3 days of work so to give you some real numbers our parsel right there we can get about 4000 pounds of biomass per acre on a susteinable regenerative bases hey this equivalent to buy 500 galons of fuel per year per acre thats why I'm not impress by the things like the peak oil stuff that's the thing that if you do not know about this kinds of productivity that we have the tecnology that we have you gonna be scared by it but if you see the power that we really do have in effective and the sunlight is still coming the sun is still shining and isn't gonna to desapire for a long time where in this an shape in terms of this package we could easy far see that with our fabrication capacity we can generate abaut hundred --- fabricator, plus a new grate warks called subsilience ok next slide what is subsilience this is a new word which we talk about in our work there firts is was substenability then there was regenerative design then there was resilient communities and now you take combine the concept of subsistence with modern tools or subsistence plus resilient and call it subsilient so that's what we belive is after the resilient movement this is what we are developing right now we talk about flexible specialization where the people who are doing this there not your specialise grans turning boalts in a factory .there adaptable flexibly specially any person in that list in principle take on the tasks of any other person so you desing totaly down the --- to the system to make it resilient we are proposing that at the end of the day when a worker done you can work two hours a day and get your modern star standar of living and thats i think we are susteninceting by the work that we are doing and whit the compress hearth brick press first product we are corrently showing that we argue those 5000dollars for 2 weeks of wich is if you look on hour product bases is everything that everybody uses therefore we don't really have issue of market in fact we eliminate we kill the sells men all toghether and even right now I have to do may be I don't know the 20% of my time peddling my work to be a sells man that's a form of waste ---

move on so --- unplaged lifesyle like the --- free yourselfs from the matrix, unplug check it into a different life style and evolve to freedom that's our goal let's move on so what is the strategy how can it be done first we are just had the stage --- just developing the set if there is 40 different pieses of it we've got one done only, after --- two years of pretty much dedicated work plus I few hundred prototypes but right now 1/40th is complete so ones we have this pakedge down we can provaid an emerge training program for people it is like equivalent to be ecology education but now we have to learn something reals ,some pratical skills. Boyes because I can tell you my experience I wanna --- in physics and further I went the more desappointed I was regarding my competition to society we get into far out stuff that didn't exist be really hit me in haed one time when i went to the physics professor saying " I don't hunderstand this whats this, what is this stand for? " --- it was some and he told me well it doesn't exist I just made it up ok so you have been tolk staff that is totaly around that people are playing in a sand boxes doing whatever they want but not are dressing person --- shoe so lets reinvent education and thats the point number two. So say you train this five or 10people you get together chippen ten thousand boxes together an hundred key and you can get yourself some land safety for 15 thousand dollars capitalize the infrastrutture all the hardware --- for 13000 get your people together get for those people fabricators on a land fore two month they build the entire set with their skill and --- 8 tools they invest 3000 for a welther toarch drowpress and some tools some power tools and then build so have a party building build your community you've got the tractor you have got the CB prass --- you have got the lumber brick and other materials you've got 15 horse power tractor which is realy the equivalent of the former 15slave plantation well if we use this thing effectively we've got encredibly power in our hands, and the potential is totaly on attac in our opinion so build this village and have a transformermative experience will really change


revised to here 22:40 min


as you do you see that this is possible you told you trasform your your minds ,is a transformative(?) exprerience, it had benn for me, and 

farther i'm going in to it( I?me going)it's get more crazy in term of how is possible tis things is so thats my experience that I can share ok next so what we are doing here is creating an economy abbandons where by using tecnology we turn it into stategy resource that we find over expend bilions of dolars now you can turn those resources into abbandoned(aboundent) resources in terms of how we use what resources you have or by using higher tecnology to take the common materials in the ground and turn them into the stuff of modern civilisation the feture is where open source (is a collaborate)???? of effort. we operate according to the oec specification which is a set of principles that we fall show the next page, and what we'll say about it is if few of us will get together right now we have one product,we are willing to share that so imagin get few more people few more product we can all share those design of open source then all those people can build up wery powerfull economic bases very quicly for example, right now you can jump on a ship and you can spend a few month and learn skills to start enterprize your self that is the point of the open business model it's called:sharing we wanna turn citizen consumers into producer and create the deth od the sellsman because if we think about it how much over energy today goes to all those functions with s..??? think about how much human energy (can liberate)???if you turn your economy into( one where)? you can provide for your own needs and your comunity and you don't have to work to make a living you still can tray for external stuff if you need it but you don't have to be, because you're sufficient on a basic of surival, you eliminate things like war all of that, let's gone so move on (that part is)???? feasibility this is totaly real we are showing this is notthing new the tecnology base that we are toalking about is all pretty much all news what we are doing is adapting and open sourcing this is an example the full product relise of the open source compress earth brick press we are getting 16 breacks out of here and ......actually the electonic controll it's a fully automatic machine .....quifa la descrizione degli elementi da cui è composta ma non capisco cosa dica we are using the power electonic from the reprap project the 3D printer we use open source controller that are....? project such that electronic which is the most complecated part of this machine, is totaly open source transparent others guys have all the documentation, la parte che dice subito dopo puoi ometterla nn capisco tutto tutto, ma mi sembra superflua, (building thers work witch is so ) CB press ??????point of the stop o stuff, nn capisco working is our firt product so let's move on to all ose specifications, where these propertys of the tools we developping, make it so powerfull.you have to start with economic significance or abundance,we're gonna make tractor or a new blew...energy we not make teddy bear or something, you can make it leater cause it's not exencial for your survival another point that is a really really important thing you definetly need and there for eliminete the need to market is basicaly soft marketing open documentation is key as I menction, we are talking about the destribution of economics how do you make this, that everybody can benefit i mean, open business model trasformetive nature of enterprise we believe that if we can create all this resilient comunity and tecnologicaly based economy that meens that any comunithy that dose that we think than starts to controll it's own politics it's own currency you by default create a policial and economic system and small scale small scaled decentralized republics we are going back to republic as that countris have fell(?) it out.wich is a huge point we focus on system design that meens to give you an example what system design mean about the stim angens moltiplication point oh that is a rediculous choise,it is like twices enefficient as the eternal combustion the diesel angen ...? very nice..now??? point of thinking if you consider of a fact that you can for example use any fuel and that fuel is local than you can actually clame. if you camparate for example biodiesel well the biomass that we gat for a few grass is such as a plane grass you can use all plan so right there is a factor of 10 over productive such as few alcohol or oil craps so all together this system prospective we consider everything in a all chain the semplicity of a shipping whar cost you can easy...from the system prospector that the system is twice efficens as the enternal combustion engines more over the stim engines concentrator solar power of the sun to generate electicity so depends of what you are looking for a system design prospective so a more transparency development production is alla open envite people to joint we are to make hardwares they have to produce post scarcity livel of production that means we can simply produce to provide the same kind of life style that we have today so the very optimistic message that we do say is that we do if we have a right by design we don't need to invoche a pricies and in fact is a self regolating system with the local emediatly resource feedback loose symplicity and low cost is the absolute point we are demostrating 5 to 10 fall reduction of cost for the hardware that we make

best example of that is the reprap 3D printer before the reprap project came about you 10000 dolarsor a 3D printer after that you can biuld it your self for 400 dolars of parts the very documentation that they provide open source business the open source method is demostrating again and again software and the next step of that is hardware that open source developing method applyes the hardware software we are talking about life time model scalable design 3by6 pellets if you wanna do that for example the werable cost you 300 dolars in materials to replace that so we are toalking about products generation transparent you can take and you can take electronic open source document all this component a life time design localisation is another fitures you can talk about local production you can talk about local sourcing beind you can talk about local production of the material available example of the localy produce lumber from the threes levels deepest level we talk about open source equipment that gets you ability to generate local resources so open source produce localy and you have economy there open business model we are sharing the plans and are e economic next global village construction set is a small set of tools meens to create an economy is a real experience promising results thats tecnological and we have totaly founded by the crause right now we have 75 thrue fans we all togheter 5000 box for month now we belive that we are 10000 barget for realy scall this world right now we have no resources if we have resources we can be 4 times fast for using the existece infrastructure so see more work blog are ducuments progress day by day became a true fan too mreo true fans good investement thancs a lot for having me hear

any questions training infrustactor start with completing the so firt you complete the set education the best thing you comptere mougeing training program so you have don't to the main point been that you have all facility where you living brething and learning about this not for some abstract goal but for your very tangebles resoultes all of your life that is a huge motivates and a program to that what we are talking about a serious experience and right now

much much easier time for doing thes you don't have to so how much land for person is needed for a sustenable we say that we can easly have relianty with 1 heaker for person that meens your entiere food energy housing and fuell infrastructure if you have good by design so that meen for example you got not to be driving an hour to work every day local your doing a little for the thing are more important for your hown evoluthion 1 ekers is very save margin where the resilient hardware

we easly have resilient with 1 eakers per person that mens but that for ekers is 4megawat for ekers which is huge if you talk about for example 1ekar can give you
