From YouTube: Paul Pham - Seed Eco-Homes in Detroit
Description
Paul is the first person we know of who actually took the Seed Eco-Home 1 (https://wiki.opensourceecology.org/wiki/Seed_Eco-Home) design in Sweet Home 3D and actually started to build upon it - with a model that he is planning to build in Detroit. Paul is applying to the OSE Apprenticeship, so that the Seed Eco-Home 2 (https://wiki.opensourceecology.org/wiki/Seed_Home_v2) and its Compressed Earth Block release in 2022 become a reality.

A
Sure
so
it
turns
out
that
I
need
to
go
back
to
arizona
to
take
care
of
some
stuff
in
the
next
week,
or
so,
just
sooner
than
I
was
expecting,
and
then
I
was
wanting
to
come
back
to
missouri
and
factory
farm
in
july
to
build
the
cev
and
learn
those
skills.
That's
definitely
the
skills
that
I'm
most
excited
about,
but
I
know
that
the
apprenticeship
is
part
of
a
more
general
curriculum.
Where
also
there's
a
you
know.
A
There's
giving
back
or
working
on
the
farm
like
any
kind
of
operation
definitely
requires
people
to
give
work.
I
don't
know
if
I
can
give
the
whole
six
months
and
I'm
also
concerned,
like
I
have
some
chronic
health
challenges
that
make
me
sort
of
like
tired
and
hard
to
focus.
So
I
do
have
some
concerns
about
being
able
to
participate
at
the
same
standard
as
everyone
else
without
you
know
that
I
might
have
done
a
few
years
ago.
A
Just
you
know
some
human
limits
and
I
definitely
would
like
to
be
there
physically
and
maybe
arrange
like
alternative
ways
of
meeting
the
requirements
and
helping
out.
I
don't
know
if
I
could
do
the
daily
schedule.
That's
posted
that
that
would
be
quite
ambitious
for
me.
I'll
do
my
best
and
I
would
like
to
leave
in
august
to
take
care
of
the
land
and
then
come
back
in
september
for
the
seed
build,
and
after
that
I
become
more
free
like
as
long
as
I
can
be
away
for
august.
A
I
think
that's
sufficient
to
get
things
started
in
the
land.
I
I
want
to
run
a
composting
operation,
so
I
think
a
month
would
be
enough
to
get
the
substantial
amounts
of
compost
that
I
would
like
to
get
started
for
the
rest
of
the
summer
and
then
come
back
for
september
october
and
then
november.
I
would
like
to
leave
and
have
thanksgiving
back
in
arizona.
B
A
Sure
the
daily
schedule,
I
think
I
read
was
you-
know,
waking
up
and
starting
work
around
eight
or
nine,
and
you
know
taking
a
break
at
lunch
and
then
stopping
before
dinner
time,
probably
like
five
or
six
and
then
you
know,
people
maybe
still
continuing
to
talk
and
socialize
and
do
evening
work
if
necessary.
Or
you
know,
if
we're
behind
schedule,
which
you
know
can
happen
because
these
schedules
are
ambitious,
then
you
know
some
work
can
continue
in
the
evening
as
people
are
able.
So
that's
my
rough
understanding,
yeah.
A
C
B
B
C
B
A
B
C
B
A
B
No,
that's!
That's!
That's
a
pretty
big
deal,
we're
we're
planning
on
doing
an
incentive
challenge
where
you
do
a
big
prize,
and
the
thing
is
that
all
of
us
on
the
saturdays
and
global
collaboration
days
would
be
putting
together
that
campaign.
So
a
serious
campaign
looking
at
like
100
or
200k
reward
before
that
and
making
that
like
really.
B
B
A
No,
that
was,
I
guess,
like
much
more
helpful
and
I
I
plan
to
drive
down
from
detroit
or
back
from
arizona.
So
I
have
a
car
and
I've
slept
in
the
car
before
I
like
have
friends
who
do
prius
car
camping,
and
so,
if
that's
okay,
to
do
on
the
property,
that
probably
would
be
my
preference,
and
I
because
I
make
some
money
teaching
online.
I
might
continue
doing
some
of
that
and
then
the
payment
for
the
apprenticeship
would
be
it's
a
lot
up
front
for
me.
A
So
if
it's
okay,
I
was
wondering
if
it
could
be
like
some
kind
of
payment
plan.
You
know
I
registered
for
the
option
where
there
was
a
loan
and
the
smallest
amount,
but
I
was
wondering
if
there's
I
may
not
be
able
to
stay
from
the
months
afterwards
to
pay
it
back,
but
I
can
sort
of
pay
it
as
as
I
earn
the
money
throughout
the
apprenticeship
that
makes
sense.
A
Yeah
and
then
yeah,
I
think,
like
needing
to
make
time
in
august
is,
is
sort
of
my
request
to
be
gone
and
then,
like
afterwards
in
december,
the
land
project
in
arizona
which
you
know
I
hope
to
be
at
least
you
know
half
as
cool
as
a
factory
farm
in
a
number
of
years.
It
was
designed
to
be
like
a
place
to
be
in
december.
B
C
A
C
C
B
B
C
B
A
C
B
C
A
A
Product,
although
I
know
what
I've
seen
posted
is
definitely
well
organized
and
furthest
ahead
of
you
know
any
other
open
source,
open
building
effort
that
I've
seen
so
yeah.
No,
I'm
totally
with
it.
I
would
like
to
the
my
land
project
to
sort
of
be
like
a
sister
community
and
to
you
know,
have
a
place
where
you
know
we
could
duplicate
a
micro
tractor
or
other
builds
or
yeah
help
refine
those
as
well
so.
B
B
B
A
B
A
B
C
B
B
B
C
B
A
A
Oh,
these
people
have
resources
and
like
let's
go,
take
their
copper
piper
whatever,
and
so
I'm
still
in
talks
about
what
the
right
level
of
transparency
is
there.
I
would
like
to
be
as
transparent
as
possible
and
I'm
trying
to
find
the
right
trade-off
of
you
know,
maybe
where
we
have
a
closed
discussion
for
a
month
or
two
while
we're
doing
the
most.
A
The
work
is
vulnerable,
like
vulnerable
to
theft,
vulnerable
to
break
in
these
housing
projects,
and
then
we
open
up
we're
like
more
open
about
everything,
including
finances
afterwards,
after
the
the
money
has
been
invested
in
the
house,
that
was
sort
of
the
discussion,
maybe
that's
not
what
she
meant
by
closed
source.
I
meant
more
of
like
open
governance,
yeah.
A
No
I've
only
lived
here
since
october.
My
friend
adrian,
my
business
partner,
has
been
here
for
three
years.
He
owns
the
house
that
I'm
in
right
now,
so
he
kind
of
inspired
me
to
come
here
and
it
seemed
like
the
area
where
they
would
be
receptive
to
a
seed
home
because
yeah,
because
there's
a
lot
of
empty
land
and
also
it's
inexpensively,
impressed.
A
A
B
A
B
B
B
B
B
C
A
B
A
Yeah
I
mean
I'm
slowly
making
progress
with
you
know,
making
friends
in
a
new
place
and
being
careful
not
to
sort
of
subsume
someone
else's
struggle,
which
you
know
because
I'm
not
black
and
but
I
think
you
know,
asian
populations
are
going
through
a
lot
of
challenges
now
as
well.
So
there's
there's
plenty
for
me
to
like
work
on
in
solidarity.
I
yeah
I
have
become
more
comfortable
yeah,
making
more
friends
since
I've
been
here
but
yeah
yeah.
It's
a
process.
B
C
B
A
C
B
A
A
C
A
A
C
A
C
A
B
B
A
A
C
A
B
B
A
B
B
A
No
for
him
it's,
he
has
an
app.
He
works
on
a
mapping
app
and
yeah.
He
has
a
kind
of
a
busy
life
in
detroit,
so
he
definitely
supports
the
projects.
I'd
be
in
communication
with
him.
We
meet
once
a
week
and
often
more,
but
he
wouldn't
be
sort
of
in
person
with
me.
I'm
I'm
coming
down
to
be
that
part
of
the
question.
