Marcin Jakubowski
Marcin Jakubowski is passionate about creating the open source economy. He is currently working on the Global Village Construction Set (GVCS), a modular, open source platform that allows for the easy fabrication of the 50 industrial machines that it takes to build a small civilization with modern comforts.
As founder of Open Source Ecology, Marcin is building the next economy – an economy that optimizes both production and distribution – while providing environmental regeneration and social justice. To this end, Marcin is currently building an agile team of global collaborators and on-site builders at his land-based facility – to bring the GVCS to beta release by year-end 2012.
