Crash course on OSE/ru

Обзор для Новичков
Начните с нашей Главной OSE страницы. Чтобы увидеть, что мы делаем, см. видео. Open Source Ecology была основана в 2004 Марчином Якубовским. Мы - сеть фермеров, инженеров, и сторонников, который в течение прошлых двух лет создавал. GVCS это открытая исходная документация, дешевизна, высокоэффективная технологическая платформа, которая позволяет легко самостоятельно изготовить 50 различных Индустриальных Машин, которые нужны для строителства жизнеспособной цивилизацию с современными удобствами. GVCS устраняет припятствия для фермерства, производства и строительства. Он выглядит как набор лего модульных инструментов в натуральную величину, которые могут создать  полноценные экономические системы, либо в сельском Миссури, где  был основан наш проект, в городской местности или в сердце Африки.

'''У нас есть амбициозная программа реализации 49 технологических продуктов за 2 года с бюджетом в 2.4M долларов - которую мы сокращённо назвали  50/2/2 программой. Сроки для этого 2011-2012.'''

Current Status
last updated: 19. August 2011.

The following prototypes and products are developed until now:

Currently we are prototyping:

In March 2011, Marcin gave a TED Talk. Since then, the project is exploding.

We finished 4 orders of CEB Presses, Tractors, Power Cubes and Soil Pulverizers. Now we are in the middle of HabLab and Workshop construction.

Construction business using the Tractor-Soil Pulverizer-Compressed Earth Brick (CEB) Press package will start in Los Angeles by an early adopter, Joskua Designs. This will be the first field testing outside of Factor E Farm. The building project in California will have to deal with earthquake codes.

Currently, there are 3 independent efforts to replicate production of CEB Presses (James Slade, Brianna Kufa), tractors, and Power Cubes (Tom Griffin, Tom's Log).

Support us in our Kickstarter campaign. This Kickstarter push is aimed at the full testing, publishing, and deployment of the construction toolkit - the Tractor, Compressed Earth Brick Press, Soil Pulverizer, and Hydraulic Power Unit. 

You can preorder the GVCS machines.

Future Plans
We are focusing on demonstrating the effectiveness of our equipment in construction and agriculture duties. For construction, we will be using the open source tractor, CEB press, sawmill, and other supporting tools such as soil pulverizer, cement mixer, auger, backhoe, trencher, hay baler, hay rake, hay cutter, and others. We will demonstrate infrastructure building and housing construction – including double CEB walls filled with strawbales for super-insulation.

We got a construction grant of 60k. You can check the GVCS Rollout Plan.

We get a Dimensional Sawmill prototype by Sweiger.

We are recruiting a Fabrication Manager and Construction Manager, and producing a site survey and architectural plans - assuming a budget of up to $100k dedicated to construction. We are further securing a rental unit in Maysville to house 1-2 onsite participants. We further have a documentation team on site, consisting of 2 dedicated people, who are working on full fabrication procedure documentation. We are currently securing our own server for video uploads, CiviCRM, and the ability to handle a large number of hits from Kickstarter. On video, we have almost 1TB of video footage from this production run, to be deployed to a remote video editing team - with a goal of professional quality instructionals on the CEB Press, Tractor, Soil Pulverizer, and Power Cube to be delivered as part of our Christmas Gift. On the legal front, we are trade-marking our identity and donating our land holdings into a trust.

We are looking for active collaboration in all projects. Our current needs are:


 * Fabrication Manager - finish the existing and continue new production runs, produce further construction equipment necessary for infrastructure buildout. We are planning on prototyping the sawmill, cement mixer, auger, trencher, and backhoe in the 2011 season.
 * Construction Project Manager- leading the building new of infrastructure as new people come on site, focusing on natural building techniques such as CEB, local lumber, and local biomass for superinsulation, and bioplastic for greenhouses (see last blog post for details)
 * 3 Project Managers – overall global/local project management and integration– utilizing the assistance of a global development team to move forward the creation and testing of the GVCS infrastructure at Factor e Farm
 * Machine Designer/CAD – feeds technical design (CAD) into the prototyping process for the GVCS – by providing fabrication drawings to the fabrication team
 * 4 Fabricators – custom fabricators and prototypers who convert technical design drawings into physical prototypes – creating the physical substance of the project
 * CAM Expert – contributes to the CAM (fabrication automation) aspect of the prototyping process by developing CAM files and by using CNC machines – while streamlining the fabrication process
 * Power Engineer – develops the electrical power grid for the community and develops the workshop power supplies – including developing the welder, plasma cutter, induction furnace, inverter, charge controller, and other power electric devices that are included in the GVCS
 * Remote Collaboration Support – organizing remote contributor teams for design/CAD/prototyping assistance to Factor e Farm
 * CAD/CAM Programmer – A robust, integrated, open source, professional-quality tool chain for CAD/CAM is currently not available. We will put effort into developing such a tool chain to promote the replicability of GVCS tools, by building on and integrating existing tools.
 * Land Regeneration Manager – Factor e Farm suffers from serious erosion and fertility issues caused by decades of prior commercial row-cropping. To ameliorate this, our program calls for building berms, ponds, and other earthworks to address erosion directly, plus, extensive mulching, as well as intensive rotational grazing as a rapid way to improve the soil food web. The primary tools that are to be used in these tasks are bulldozers, ruminants, and hay-bales.
 * Farmer – or more specifically – the open source agroecologist – the pivotal person in the community who provides nutrition to the FeF team and thereby is the primary contibutor to the good health of the community. The open source agroecologist is responsible for food production – from garden and orchard to field crops, animal husbandry, fishery, and forestry – and for food storage and processing, such as seed cleaning, seed saving, and oil expression. The farmer is responsible for producing food, fuel, and fiber crops (both wood and clothing) – while maintaining a diverse and integrated ecosystem and soil food web that improves in quality over time.
 * Cook – feeds the FeF population; engages in crop planning, harvest, and organization of food processing activities
 * Web Programmers and User Interface Designers can help with the True Fans Development Proposal.

2012
2012 is rapid parallel development for the completion of the 50 machines. The greater global effort beyond FeF could help tremendously by identifying a large team of qualified, remote developers. Success on the overall 50 machines requires that we recruit a team of bidders/designers/prototypers for each machine – as each machine goes through a multi-step development process from concept to field testing and iteration. This enables us to access large sources of funding. Without a deployment team, we cannot take in money. Thus, if we have a solid team of bidders/designers/prototypers – and their capacities are clear – then we are in a position to move rapidly.

after 2013
After the GVCS completion the first OSE Community will be built and Education and Training in 2-year immersion program are planned.

A Documentary Film about Factory E Farm may come in the future.

and collaborate with us to help us make this happen.
