Could Open Source Ecology, in conjunction with 3D Printing, Natural Fibers and Permaculture, be the way we can implement the ideas of Jacque Fresco and the Venus Project without creating yet another totalitarian society.

We don’t have to infringe on property rights, or force anyone to participate. We can just move out to the country and start our own Techno-Farms and Industrial Communities. We don’t need to start entire new cities, completely planned out and managed centrally, we can just start one quarter acre at a time. We don’t have to abandon the cities and towns we already populate; they work just fine as the are, all we need to do is slowly incorporate these new technologies, and with it, a new sense of community.
