The lecture that we gave over a month ago (wow, that went fast!), is now available online, thanks to the good folks at Bentley. Unfortunately, you also have to register with them to watch the video (they have to get something out of it right?).

BLDG 2.0 was selected to be published in the inagural issue of the new journal [bracket], released this winter. We're psyched to have been chosen.

Google's Project 10^100 team announced today that they were unable to complete the internally vetted list of 100 finalists for public voting, because they were overwhelmed by the number of ideas (over 150,000). They have pushed back the announcement date to March 17 (St. Patrick's Day).

BLDG 2.0 is a research project initiated by CASE, in partnership with New Buildings Institute, Arup Sustainability, SHoP Architects, Columbia University and IDEO. BLDG 2.0 will address two, somewhat paradoxical, barriers to informed sustainable design: the lack of publicly accessible performance data and the difficulty of extracting meaningful, consistent information from the raw, unstandardized data when it is available. BLDG 2.0 will move beyond this to create a real knowledge resource for building performance.

Unsurprisingly, BLDG 2.0 didn't make it into the second stage of the AIA's Latrobe Prize competition. :-( Unfortunately, we need a few more grey hairs and martinis with the jurors before we're accepted as members of the club. Nothing like paying your dues.

Keeping the momentum going, Nash, Josh and I decided to further refine our BLDG 2.0 concept and submit it for consideration for the 2009 Latrobe Prize. The Latrobe Prize is a biennial competitive grant, awarded by the AIA's College of Fellows to advance professional knowledge in architecture.
