  • Mission

    OSE envisions a world of collaborative design for a transparent and inclusive economy of abundance.

    We are trying to change the economic system to open collaboration, replacing patents and trade secrets across the board with collaborative development. Our main question is how we transform the reptilian brain of humans from fear and scarcity to one of abundance. This is based on a first principles understanding that energy resources are abundant according to the Kardashev scale, and therefore material abundance is possible. Therefore, the goal is to educate civilization to the practice of abundance by teaching the mindsets and skills required to begin living in an information-based, post-scarcity economy.
