Subject: [permaculture] Urban Farm, the TV Show, to Premiere May 1 at ASU
Date: Sat, 8 Apr 2006 17:45:03 -0700
Hey all,
My friend Amy and I created a TV show concept
three years ago. With an incredible production
team, and the support of a generous grant from
Arizona State Universityís (ASU's) Edson
Entrepreneurial Initiative, our dream has become
a reality! The Smart Spaces: Inside & Out Pilot
will be premiering at ASU's Neeb Hall on Monday,
May 1, 2006 at 7:00 PM. The event is open to
everyone, admission is free by RSVPing to
Amy@Urbanfarm.org. This is not a television
broadcast event, it is a private screening to
introduce you to our project.
I am very excited to share this with you and hope
that you will come be a part of this exciting
evening of information and entertainment. Please
forward this to anyone that you feel would be
interested. Also if you know anyone in the press
or entertainment industry, please let me know so
that we can invite them.
Our fun, hip TV show will entertain, inspire and
inform! Along with an interactive Web site, the
weekly TV show is designed to inspire viewers and
illustrate how easy and inexpensive it can be to
embrace green living and sustainability. The
creative, easy-to-navigate Web site reinforces
topics covered on the show and provides a
learning community to support viewers as they
make changes presented during the show.
The evening will begin with a meet & greet in the
courtyard in front of Neeb Hall, where the
following cool concepts, highlighted in the show,
will be on display:
* Tim Day, Zap of Arizona, will showcase the new Americanized Smart car
* Matt Shannon, American Solar will explain photovoltaic solar panels
* Ken Beyer, The Skylight Guys, will extol the virtues of tubular skylights
The evening will then move on to the unveiling of
the pilot, and an interactive session with the
audience about what's next for the entire project.
Sustainability is clearly at the tipping point
with media, business, and the public realizing
that it is time for a change. Whatís missing is
a way to educate mainstream American consumers.
Thatís where Smart Spaces: Inside & Out comes to
life. It easily explains What's in it for me?,
while delivering a hip, savvy sustainability
message.
Looking forward to seeing you all at the
Premiere. Please remember to RSVP to
Amy@urbanfarm.org.
