I noticed the solar fire thing is currently (though it may well and hopefully improve) 400 bucks per peak KW thermal, so after conversion to electricity it is pretty close to cheap solar panels. We are serious about setting new standards as a Distributive Enterprise – and we are calling out for others to adopt the same practice.Īwesome, I ony wish I had the expertise time and money to contribute now, but I have set reminders for when I do. We are also looking for more fabricators to join us at Factor e Farm – to help in the production run, and liberate my time for more of the technical development work. I can handle managing about 12 projects at a time of the 50 total. Our main need right now is a full-time project manager – someone with Systems Engineering and Management experience who can assist in the technological integration work.

We want to print some of these brochures ourselves, so if you have a spare color printer and you can donate it to us, please email me at opensourceecology at gmail dot com. Help us spread the word and recruit more True Fans and technical contributors. In the meantime, print a few brochures and pass them out to your friends.

We expect this to be yet another hit, even larger that the Solar Fire collaboration. Isaiah will also be organizing the marketing campaign for the Solar Microfactory and Nanohabitat Kickstarter event. Isaiah is the key player behind the scenes who is helping to set new standards with our media presence, such as his direction on my TED Talk. Thanks to Isaiah for producing the trifold – another great job by our Media Director. Now this is just too much good news for one day, so I will dedicate tomorrow’s blog post to this exciting development. We are also joining efforts with Solar Fire – the open source solar concentrator project.

Our numbers are showing explosive growth, and there are large numbers of technical contributors continuing to join the project, especially after my TED Talk. So if you like to see this work continue exploding, you can commit to $10 or more per month by subscribing:

If you are printing these, make sure that you use the Rockwell font, which is also included in the download.Īs you may see in the trifold, we have now reached the 300 True Fan Mark:Īs of today, our actual number is 311. You can download this in GIMP or Photoshop and jpg format. The official trifold brochure for Open Source Ecology is now available:
