Cob: Re: Fwd: Re: FW: [ee-internet] Seeking names of green technologyteachers

[Gregori]



Tim,

A    group of  teachers in Perth, Ontario are just now forming to explore
the potential of just such a
program.   Its being introduced by ArtNouveau.ws, a now forming Consortium
of Environmental
Artists, Architects and Environmental Consultants. This initiative is
focusing on developing
"Design/Build" projects, inspired by Yestermorrow in Vermont.

Our objective is to invite professional facilitators to produce
environmental art installations within the community. In this
process, we are exploring the full potential of designing scale models,
scanning with 3-D scanners, as well as desiging  with 3-
D modeling software, and outputting the digital designs to robotic CNC
routers.

This entire process is part of an R&D initiative to provide organic
architecture using state of the art technology.  Cob fits into our process
as well.    I have added you to our mailing list and will send you our site
when its posted.  This initiative is coming out of Toronto.  If you would
like to cover the story as to how this program is developing, your welcome
to join us. Its being covered by DV Video.
