In between 2nd & 3rd gear.

I would say pulling off Pecha Kucha was an official shfting to 2nd gear for sure. Taking the building from Brooklyn warehouse style Heavy Metal BBQ to the hosting of that event is a definite, measurable progression.


We turned major corners in the past couple of days. We just secured TECO (Tampa Electric Co. for all you foreigners :-) as an official sponsor. In a lot of ways, one could argue TECO is the enemy of a zero energy project such as ours. The fact they are officially getting behind what we are doing lends a great deal of credibility to us and is bound to accelerate sponsorship involvement. We will be promoting TECO's net metering plan where we sell power back to the grid and will feature an interview with a TECO official in the documentary.

We had a very positive article come out in the TBT last Friday : Project 3.0 in TBT.

We finished the rest of the concrete installation for the main floor last Saturday. We even had 3 volunteers from Tarmac - the sponsoring concrete company - help us out! We have very good prospects in the pipeline for the water-based (green) acid stain; my main prospect has been featured on the TV show "flip that house".

Take a look at the latest photos : Latest Project 3.0 pix.

Shelby MacIntyre - one of the producer of the documentary on Joe Redner's life - has agreed to get involved in the production of the documentary. He's going to edit our existing footage to date & produce at least 4 episodes cued up. We will be releasing these weekly starting in the next 30 days. The idea is that within 6 episodes the show carries on in real time.

The official destination site for the Campus TV - is currently under construction by a 4 person team of the International Academy of Design. We are expecting to go live with our content within the next 30 days.

Enclosed you will find the latest marketing package on Project 3.0 that sums where we are at right now. This is what I am hitting the next round of sponsors with. When you go to the sponsorship page in the proposal you can click on the sponsor logos to learn more about the companies already involved
