Dr. Maureen Connelly gives a quick overview of three exciting student projects currently happening at BCIT’s Centre for Architectural Ecology:
Project 1: acoustical performance of window fixtures. We are preparing a new wall insert and window specimen for sound testing. This is Joyce's Mater of Engineering project with support from industry including windows manufacturer (EuroLine Windows), shutters and other window inserts companies. We also got lots of help from great friends, including student and staff from the Carpentry department.
Project 2: intensity probe testing for noise reduction of existing versus new windows. Neha is doing this as part of an investigation involving a whole-building window retrofit at our lovely shingles building (NE3, Burnaby campus).
Project 3: acoustical and air quality effects of indoor living walls. This is Sepideh's Master of Applied Science project. She is planting 15m2, 525kg of living wall panels (a proprietary system!) in preparation for her research tests; this is a multi-institution project: the wall panels will be moved to the CIRS Building atrium at UBC and tested there to see how they effect the space!
Joyce Mak, Neha Arora and Sepideh Daneshpanah are graduate students from the BCIT Master Programs in Building Science/Building Engineering.
We have many, many other exciting student projects covering a wide range of topics in building acoustics, living architecture and building science. This is just a glimpse!
We'd love to hear your questions and comments.

Integrated Concentrating Solar Facade Systems presented by Anna Dyson at TEDxQuestSchool on Monday November 21st, 2011.
"The Integrated Concentrating (IC) Solar Facade System is a building integrated photovoltaic system that takes a dramatically different approach to providing electrical power, thermal energy, enhanced day lighting, and reduced solar gain. It goes beyond what existing building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) or concentrating PV technologies to can provide, and is applicable to both retrofits and new construction. The system is architecturally integrated into the facades and roof atria of buildings yet still provides maximum outside views and diffuse daylight for the building users."
Anna Dyson teaches design, technology, and theory at the School of Architecture at Rensselaer. She is the director of The Center for Architecture, Science and Ecology (CASE) which hosts the Graduate Program in Architectural Sciences, concentration is Built Ecologies. She has worked as a design architect and product designer in several offices in Canada, Europe, and the United States. Her work has been exhibited in the MoMA Young Architects Series, and was a finalist in the international Next Generation Design Competition. Dyson holds multiple international patents for building systems inventions and is currently directing interdisciplinary research sponsored to develop new systems for on-site energy generation. Dyson received a Baccalauréat Général from Université Laval and a Master of Architecture from Yale University.

As our planet becomes more crowded, city planners and architects are trying to come up with new ideas for future human habitation. We've seen biospheres and proposals for underground housing, but now one Boston-based architectural firm has come up with a conceptual plan that envisages cities that float. Let's have a look.
This is a glimpse of what may be the future of urban living.
It's called NOAH, a fully sustainable floating habitat designed to support thousands of people.
The idea comes from architect Kevin Schopfer, who says he was inspired by the destruction of New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
He says NOAH is an example of arcology, a design incorporating the principles of architecture with ecology.
[Kevin Schopfer, Schopfer Associates]:
"I began thinking seriously about the notion on how you combine arcology and the technology of floating cities, what should they be? What would they be?"
NOAH would sit on a barge on the river. It would be built from sustainable and recycled material and fitted with thousands of solar panels and wind turbines to generate its own energy.
[Kevin Schopfer, Schopfer Associates]:
"You are as driven to sustainable perfection as you can be and you try every move to make sure that what, the materials you use and how you use them are reacting the right way with the environment."
Schopfer is employing those same design principles in an another disaster-inspired project, a conceptual habitat he calls Harvest City.
In January, 2010 a massive earthquake leveled Port au Prince, the capital of Haiti, leaving more than 300,000 people dead and millions homeless.
Harvest City, says Schofer, would float in the bay of Port au Prince as a temporary home for the displaced and center for commerce.
[Kevin Schopfer, Schopfer Associates]:
"In the situation of Haiti, it allows Haiti to breathe a little and give people a place to go while they are re-growing things on land. It creates a new industry, which it would, an ongoing industry and it creates a very safe haven, if you will for schools and ect."
Harvest city would be three kilometers wide and comprise farm land, residential areas, and markets, all connected by canals.
Like NOAH, Harvest City would be based around sustainability.
The design calls for clean energy generation, rainwater collection depots and desalination plants to make water fitr for for farming and human consumption.
Schopfer's ideas have received mixed reviews. Many applaud the designs on paper, but some critics say they belong in the realm of science fiction.
As for Schopfer, he believes the kind of self-sustaining future described by his arcology designs, will arrive sooner than the critics realize.

Center for Architecture
The Center for Architecture is located in the neighborhood of Greenwich Village at 536 LaGuardia Place, between West 3rd Street and Bleecker Street in Manhattan, New York City. In recent years, the center, operated by the New York Chapter of the American Institute of Architects, has become an increasingly important cultural institution through its revolving exhibits on architecture, urban planning, urban design, and environmental planning. The center also offers an extensive calendar of seminars, public feedback forums, project unveilings, and educational programs, as well as events and changing exhibitions.
The Center for Architecture opened to the public in October 2003.
Geothermal system
In the summer of 2003, the geothermal system for the Center for Architecture was installed. For three weeks, construction crews drilled two wells, each 1,260 feet (~ 384m) deep beneath the sidewalk. After drilling through layers or gravel, pea stone, overburden soil and bedrock, the wells were connected to make a closed loop system. The geothermal system consists of 6-inch-diameter (150 mm) pipes, heat exchangers and pumps for groundwater to flow through. The geothermal system cools the Center for Architecture during warm weather and heats it during the cold months by circulating water through heat exchangers. The system is based on the fact that the earth’s temperature at a thousand feet below Manhattan is a constant 52 °F (11 °C). The heat exchangers use the temperature of the water to cool (or heat as demand requires) the air released into the 12,000-square-foot (1,100 m2) facility through air ducts. Air is blown over the chilled or heated water before traveling into the galleries and office spaces.

Dr. Maureen Connelly gives a quick overview of three exciting student projects currently happening at BCIT’s Centre for Architectural Ecology:
Project 1: acoustical performance of window fixtures. We are preparing a new wall insert and window specimen for sound testing. This is Joyce's Mater of Engineering project with support from industry including windows manufacturer (EuroLine Windows), shutters and other window inserts companies. We also got lots of help from great friends, including student and staff from the Carpentry department.
Project 2: intensity probe testing for noise reduction of existing versus new windows. Neha is doing this as part of an investigation involving a whole-building window retrofit at our lovely shingles building (NE3, Burnaby campus).
Project 3: acoustical and air quality effects of indoor living walls. This is Sepideh's Master of Applied Science project. She is planting 15m2, 525kg of living wall panels (a proprietary system!) in preparation for her research tests; this is a multi-institution project: the wall panels will be moved to the CIRS Building atrium at UBC and tested there to see how they effect the space!

Integrated Concentrating Solar Facade Systems presented by Anna Dyson at TEDxQuestSchool on Monday November 21st, 2011.
"The Integrated Concentrating (IC) Solar Facade System is a building integrated photovoltaic system that takes a dramatically different approach to providing electrical power, thermal energy, enhanced day lighting, and reduced solar gain. It goes beyond what existing building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) or concentrating PV technologies to can provide, and is applicable to both retrofits and new construction. The system is architecturally integrated into the facades and roof atria of buildings yet still provides maximum outside views and diffuse daylight for the building users."
Anna Dyson teaches design, technology, and theory at the School of Architecture at Rensselaer. She is the director of The Center for Architecture, Science and Ecology (CASE) which hosts the Graduate Program in Architectural Sciences, concentration is Built Ecologies. She has worked as a design architect and product designer in several offices in Canada, Europe, and the United States. Her work has been exhibited in the MoMA Young Architects Series, and was a finalist in the international Next Generation Design Competition. Dyson holds multiple international patents for building systems inventions and is currently directing interdisciplinary research sponsored to develop new systems for on-site energy generation. Dyson received a Baccalauréat Général from Université Laval and a Master of Architecture from Yale University.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group.

As our planet becomes more crowded, city planners and architects are trying to come up with new ideas for future human habitation. We've seen biospheres and proposals for underground housing, but now one Boston-based architectural firm has come up with a conceptual plan that envisages cities that float. Let's have a look.
This is a glimpse of what may be the future of urban living.
It's called NOAH, a fully sustainable floating habitat designed to support thousands of people.
The idea comes from architect Kevin Schopfer, who says he was inspired by the destruction of New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
He says NOAH is an example of arcology, a design incorporating the principles of architecture with ecology.
[Kevin Schopfer, Schopfer Associates]:
"I began thinking seriously about the notion on how you combine arcology and the technology of floating cities, what should they be? What would they be?"
NOAH would sit on a barge on the river. It would be built from sustainable and recycled material and fitted with thousands of solar panels and wind turbines to generate its own energy.
[Kevin Schopfer, Schopfer Associates]:
"You are as driven to sustainable perfection as you can be and you try every move to make sure that what, the materials you use and how you use them are reacting the right way with the environment."
Schopfer is employing those same design principles in an another disaster-inspired project, a conceptual habitat he calls Harvest City.
In January, 2010 a massive earthquake leveled Port au Prince, the capital of Haiti, leaving more than 300,000 people dead and millions homeless.
Harvest City, says Schofer, would float in the bay of Port au Prince as a temporary home for the displaced and center for commerce.
[Kevin Schopfer, Schopfer Associates]:
"In the situation of Haiti, it allows Haiti to breathe a little and give people a place to go while they are re-growing things on land. It creates a new industry, which it would, an ongoing industry and it creates a very safe haven, if you will for schools and ect."
Harvest city would be three kilometers wide and comprise farm land, residential areas, and markets, all connected by canals.
Like NOAH, Harvest City would be based around sustainability.
The design calls for clean energy generation, rainwater collection depots and desalination plants to make water fitr for for farming and human consumption.
Schopfer's ideas have received mixed reviews. Many applaud the designs on paper, but some critics say they belong in the realm of science fiction.
As for Schopfer, he believes the kind of self-sustaining future described by his arcology designs, will arrive sooner than the critics realize.

Most journeys begin at Penn Station or Grand Central, and if you arrive at the later you'll be wowed by the building. The Meatpacking District was once home to markets, slaughterhouses, and packaging plants, but times have changed. Today you'll find a mixture of trendy restaurants, clubs and boutiques. The Village used to be a bohemian neighborhood that drew artists and musicians, but today you're more likely to find upper middle class families living here. Completed in 1883, Brooklyn Bridge is one of the oldest suspension bridges in the United States. Williamsburg has become popular given its lower rent prices. University students and young professionals have been flocking to this part of town.
You can walk along the riverfront for a great view of the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges and the Manhattan skyline. During the summer months, Bryant Park also becomes a popular hangout spot people looking to relax and even work on their tans. The Staten Island Ferry is free of charge and this makes it really popular with visitors who want to catch a glimpse of the Statue of Liberty from a distance. Battery Park is located on the southern tip of Manhattan. Having both lived in South Korea, we were thrilled to come across Manhattan's own Little Korea. Coney Island is all about good old fashioned fun. The Cloisters will make you feel like you've travelled over to Europe. Central Park is massive and there are so many places to visit within its boundaries. We managed to visit Belvedere Castle, the Great Lawn, Shakespeare Garden, The Ramble, The Jackie Onassis Reservoir, the Alice in Wonderland Statue, and we still left feeling like we barely scratched the surface.
And that concludes a look at our very busy week in New York City. I'm still shocked we managed to cover so many attractions, but the great thing about this city is that distances aren't very long and there's always something really cool worth checking out around each corner. Have you been to New York? What are your favorite things about this city? Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments section below.

https://wn.com/50_Things_To_Do_In_New_York_City_|_Top_Attractions_Travel_Guide
Our recent week in New York City was an action-packed one. We decided to set ourselves a challenge to see and do as much as we possibly could, and that gave way to this travel video guide which highlights 50 of the top attractions. In a city like New York this means we barely scratched the surface, but hopefully this video will highlight the cornucopia of possibilities that is the Big Apple.

Most journeys begin at Penn Station or Grand Central, and if you arrive at the later you'll be wowed by the building. The Meatpacking District was once home to markets, slaughterhouses, and packaging plants, but times have changed. Today you'll find a mixture of trendy restaurants, clubs and boutiques. The Village used to be a bohemian neighborhood that drew artists and musicians, but today you're more likely to find upper middle class families living here. Completed in 1883, Brooklyn Bridge is one of the oldest suspension bridges in the United States. Williamsburg has become popular given its lower rent prices. University students and young professionals have been flocking to this part of town.
You can walk along the riverfront for a great view of the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges and the Manhattan skyline. During the summer months, Bryant Park also becomes a popular hangout spot people looking to relax and even work on their tans. The Staten Island Ferry is free of charge and this makes it really popular with visitors who want to catch a glimpse of the Statue of Liberty from a distance. Battery Park is located on the southern tip of Manhattan. Having both lived in South Korea, we were thrilled to come across Manhattan's own Little Korea.

Four hundred miles west of Moscow is St. Petersburg, Russia. A striking city resting on the banks of the Neva River, St. Petersburg has long been a draw for lovers of architecture, as St. Petersburg tours often begin with the city's legendary structures.
Enter a world of towering cathedrals, palaces, and gardens, many of them set down by the order of Peter the Great in the 18th century. As the decades passed, later members of Russian royalty added to the city's opulence by constructing additional marvels. Walk through the Palace Square, located in the heart of St. Petersburg and home of the Winter Palace, the sprawling home of Catherine the Great. Next, pay a visit to St. Isaac's Cathedral and its gold-plated dome, which glitters in the sunshine. If you walk to the top of its dome, you will be rewarded with astonishing views of the city.
Continue your St. Petersburg sightseeing by taking a boat ride down the river to Peterhof Gardens & Palace. This gilded structure and its lush array of plant life was constructed to rival France's Palace of Versailles, and is a popular place for a quiet walk in nature or to reflect upon the engineering marvel of its 60 fountains, all of which flow continuously without the use of pumps.
Spend your evening walking along Nevsky Prospect, St. Petersburg's main thoroughfare. Besides offering even more beautiful architecture to gaze upon, Nevsky Prospect is loaded with restaurants and boutiques. Enjoy a delicious meal, shop around for the perfect Russian souvenir, and plan the itinerary for your next day in this magnificent city.

Travel video about destination Uzbekistan.
Uzbekistan is a country with thousands of years of history and contains all the magic of the Silk Road, as well as numerous oriental fairy tales, along with traditional culture, Islamic history and fascinating desert landscapes. Tashkent is the city of Amir Timur, the riding general who established a dynasty. It is a city on the ancient Silk Road, famous in both orient and occident, and having inspired both scholars and poets, plus craftsmen and artists. Modern Tashkent contains wide boulevards and plenty of lush greenery. White storks that symbolize fertility crown the large entrance arcades to the Place Of Independence. Samarqand was the centre of one of the oldest forms of state in Middle Asia, and was located on the Silk Road. Newly introduced Timurid style further enriched the architecture. Coloured mosaics of astounding luminosity compete with glazed relief ceramics whose ornamentation is composed of arabesques, font characters and geometrical shapes. Samarqand Bazaar now has a new, modern appearance and the variety of goods on offer has never been better with fresh fruit, vegetables, honey and cheese. The ‘Wild West’ of Uzbekistan is a wonderful region of deserts with just a few yurt camps for overnight accommodation. Qirk Qiz Qala emerges from the middle of the flat, featureless desert. Almost mystically, the final sharp fragments of the castle’s former defensive towers emerge from the ground which consist mainly of gravel and are covered with low saxaul bushes that defy the desert’s strong winds with their deep-reaching roots. The oasis city of Khiva is one of the greatest centres of ancient Korezm, ‘Land of the sun’, and was where mathematician Mohammed, who discovered algebra, once lived. Almost fifteen hundred years of oriental culture are hidden within the intriguing winding streets of this fine oasis city. Uzbekistan has always been at the intersection of major trade and cultural routes and a border between Asia and Europe, between nomads and the Western world. Exoticism mixed with all the magic of the One Thousand And One Nights!

Come join us for a day trip from Hong Kong (香港) as we visit Macau covering the best things to do in one day in our Macau Travel Guide (澳門 - 澳门).
We started off our day waking up early in Hong Kong to get to the ferry terminal to take a TurboJET ferry to Macao. *Important* remember to take your passport as you're crossing one special administration region in China to another (Hong Kong to Macau) and you'll need to go through immigration on both sides (it doesn't take long).
After arriving we took free transportation (provided by the casinos and hotels) to check out the Venetian Casino and Parisian Hotel. Then we were off to Taipa to mostly eat Macau street food and enjoy the old colonial architecture.
We then made our way to Senado Square, the ruins of St. Paul's and Forte Monte while munching on plenty of Macanese street food before heading back to Hong Kong on a TurboJET ferry.
As you can see you can do a lot in just one day in Macau but a few things we didn't get to do included gambling at casinos, going up Macau Tower or checking out the A-Ma temple. For more of the things we missed out on but are worth considering doing in Macau see our two lists below.

Macau Travel Guide - Macao Day Trip from Hong Kong Travel Food Video Transcript:
Well good morning from Hong Kong. It is seven in the morning. A little early to be out in my opinion but today we're going to Macau. Special day.
So we've got our tickets for Macau. Woo! 160 Hong Kong dollars each. It is just over $20 US bucks and they give you your seats as you basically arrive. Just after you go through immigration. Yeah so we just got these little stickers. We're 17M and 17K and guys don't forget to bring your passport because technically you're going to a different special administrative region. You're going from Hong Kong to Macau.
This is part of our Travel in Macau video series showcasing Macau food, Macau culture and Macau cuisine.

Our visit Macau travel guide documentary covers some of the top attractions including a food guide (best restaurants and street food), top museums and Macau at night and by day. We also cover off-the-beaten-path activities you won't find in a typical Macau itinerary, Macau tourism brochure or Macau city tour.
Macau Travel Guide - Macao Day Trip from Hong Kong Travel Food Video Transcript:
Well good morning from Hong Kong. It is seven in the morning. A little early to be out in my opinion but today we're going to Macau. Special day.
So we've got our tickets for Macau. Woo! 160 Hong Kong dollars each. It is just over $20 US bucks and they give you your seats as you basically arrive. Just after you go through immigration. Yeah so we just got these little stickers. We're 17M and 17K and guys don't forget to bring your passport because technically you're going to a different special administrative region. You're going from Hong Kong to Macau.
This is part of our Travel in Macau video series showcasing Macau food, Macau culture and Macau cuisine.

It's hard to imagine a New York different from the one we know, but what would the city have been like if the ideas of some of the greatest architectural dreamers had made it beyond the drawing boards and into built form? The new book Never Built New York paints the picture of an alternative New York, with renderings, sketches, models, and stories of proposals for the city that never came to be. Internationally acclaimed architects Daniel Libeskind. Steven Holl, and Elizabeth Diller come together with author Sam Lubell to envision this alternate city.
DANIEL LIBESKIND established his architectural studio in Berlin, Germany, in 1989 after winning the competition to build the Jewish Museum in Berlin. In February 2003, Studio Libeskind moved its headquarters from Berlin to New York City when Daniel Libeskind was selected as the master planner for the World Trade Center redevelopment. Daniel Libeskind’s practice is involved in designing and realizing a diverse array of urban, cultural and commercial projects internationally. The Studio has completed buildings that range from museums and concert halls to convention centers, university buildings, hotels, shopping centers and residential towers. As Principal Design Architect for Studio Libeskind , Libeskind speaks widely on the art of architecture in universities and professional summits. His architecture and ideas have been the subject of many articles and exhibitions, influencing the field of architecture and the development of cities and culture. He lives in New York with his wife and business partner, Nina Libeskind.
STEVEN HOLL joined the Architectural Association in London in 1976 and established Steven Holl Architects in New York City. As founder and principal of Steven Holl Architects, Holl is the designer of all projects ongoing in the office. Considered one of America’s most important architects, he is recognized for his ability to blend space and light with great contextual sensitivity and to utilize the unique qualities of each project to create a concept-driven design. He has received the 2014 Praemium Imperiale International Arts Award for Architecture, the 2012 AIA Gold Medal, the RIBA 2010 Jencks Award, and the first ever Arts Award of the BBVA Foundation Frontiers of Knowledge Awards (2009). He is a tenured Professor at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Architecture and Planning, and has also taught at the University of Washington, the Pratt Institute, and the University of Pennsylvania.
ELIZABETH DILLER is a founding partner of Diller Scofidio + Renfro, an interdisciplinary design studio that works at the intersection of architecture, the visual arts, and the performing arts. With her partner Ricardo Scofidio, Diller is the first in the field of architecture to receive the MacArthur Foundation's “genius” award. Founded in 1979, her studio established its identity through independent, theoretical, and self-generated projects, before reaching international prominence with projects such as Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, the renovation and expansion of Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York, and the High Line on Manhattan’s west side. Recently completed projects include The Broad Museum in downtown Los Angeles and The Vagelos Education Center at Columbia University in New York City. Diller has been recognized by the Smithsonian Institution with the National Design Award; the National Academy of Design with a Lifetime Achievement Award; and the American Academy of the Arts and Letters with the Brunner Prize. She is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and an International Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects. Diller graduated from the Cooper Union School of Architecture in 1979. She is a Professor of Architecture at Princeton University.
SAM LUBELL is a Staff Writer at Wired and a Contributing Editor at The Architect’s Newspaper. He has written seven books about architecture: Never Built New York, Midcentury Modern Travel Guide, Never Built Los Angeles, Julius Shulman Los Angeles: The Birth of a Modern Metropolis, Paris 2000+, London 2000+, and Living West. He writes for The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles Magazine, New York Magazine, Architectural Record, Architect, Architectural Review, Wallpaper*, Contract, and other publications. He co-curated the A+D Architecture and Design Museum exhibitions Never Built Los Angeles and Shelter: Rethinking How We Live in Los Angeles.

https://www.expedia.com/Prague.d180014.Destination-Travel-Guides
Step into a child’s storybook when you first arrive in Prague, a city in the Czech Republic where sleek, modern buildings share space with ancient gothic architecture. Wander down the twisting cobblestone streets – you’re sure to find something new and exciting. After all, even locals get lost here.
Prague tourism usually involves the Royal Route, a historic coronation path that will take you through Old Town. Walk a few blocks to Old Town Square and sample local street fare in the shadow of old castles and palaces. Old Town itself is full of cafes, restaurants, and galleries, and will provide days of exploration for intrepid visitors.
Cross over the Charles Bridge and climb up to Prague Castle, a network of palaces, churches, and numerous museums. Be careful, as folks were a lot shorter back then – you may have to duck your head as you walk through the low-ceilinged, artifact-filled halls.
Your Prague sightseeing must pause at St. Vitus Cathedral, a massive gothic structure dating back 600 years. You’ll have to arch your back to see over 300 feet to the ceilings, which seem to vanish into the heavens. By the time you’re back outside, it will likely be twilight. You’ll see pigs roasting on spits and people gathered under the statue of St. Wenceslas to share their daily adventures. The people here are friendly, so why not join them and chime in with your own stories?

TEDxQuestSchool-Anna Dyson: Integrated Concentrating Solar Facade Systems
Integrated Concentrating Solar Facade Systems presented by Anna Dyson at TEDxQuestSchool on Monday November 21st, 2011. "The Integrated Concentrating (IC) Solar Facade System is a building integrated photovoltaic system that takes a dramatically different approach to providing electrical power, thermal energy, enhanced day lighting, and reduced solar gain. It goes beyond what existing building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) or concentrating PV technologies to can provide, and is applicable to both retrofits and new construction. The system is architecturally integrated into the facades and roof atria of buildings yet still provides maximum outside views and diffuse daylight for the building users."

We've seen biospheres and proposals for underground housing, but now one Boston-based architectural firm has come up with a conceptual plan that envisages cities that float. Let's have a look. This is a glimpse of what may be the future of urban living. It's called NOAH, a fully sustainable floating habitat designed to support thousands of people.

She is planting 15m2, 525kg of living wall panels (a proprietary system!) in preparation for her research tests; this is a multi-institution project: the wall panels will be moved to the CIRS Building atrium at UBC and tested there to see how they effect the space!
Joyce Mak, Neha Arora and Sepideh Daneshpanah are graduate students from the BCIT Master Programs in Building Science/Building Engineering.
We have many, many other exciting student projects covering a wide range of topics in building acoustics, living architecture and building science. This is just a glimpse!

Integrated Concentrating Solar Facade Systems presented by Anna Dyson at TEDxQuestSchool on Monday November 21st, 2011.
"The Integrated Concentrating (IC) Solar Facade System is a building integrated photovoltaic system that takes a dramatically different approach to providing electrical power, thermal energy, enhanced day lighting, and reduced solar gain. It goes beyond what existing building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) or concentrating PV technologies to can provide, and is applicable to both retrofits and new construction. The system is architecturally integrated into the facades and roof atria of buildings yet still provides maximum outside views and diffuse daylight for the building users."
Anna Dyson teaches design, technology, and theory at the School of Architecture at Rensselaer. She is the director of The Center for Architecture, Science and Ecology (CASE) which hosts the Graduate Program in Architectural Sciences, concentration is Built Ecologies. She has worked as a design architect and product designer in several offices in Canada, Europe, and the United States. Her work has been exhibited in the MoMA Young Architects Series, and was a finalist in the international Next Generation Design Competition. Dyson holds multiple international patents for building systems inventions and is currently directing interdisciplinary research sponsored to develop new systems for on-site energy generation. Dyson received a Baccalauréat Général from Université Laval and a Master of Architecture from Yale University.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

As our planet becomes more crowded, city planners and architects are trying to come up with new ideas for future human habitation. We've seen biospheres and proposals for underground housing, but now one Boston-based architectural firm has come up with a conceptual plan that envisages cities that float. Let's have a look.
This is a glimpse of what may be the future of urban living.
It's called NOAH, a fully sustainable floating habitat designed to support thousands of people.
The idea comes from architect Kevin Schopfer, who says he was inspired by the destruction of New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
He says NOAH is an example of arcology, a design incorporating the principles of architecture with ecology.
[Kevin Schopfer, Schopfer Associates]:
"I began thinking seriously about the notion on how you combine arcology and the technology of floating cities, what should they be? What would they be?"
NOAH would sit on a barge on the river. It would be built from sustainable and recycled material and fitted with thousands of solar panels and wind turbines to generate its own energy.
[Kevin Schopfer, Schopfer Associates]:
"You are as driven to sustainable perfection as you can be and you try every move to make sure that what, the materials you use and how you use them are reacting the right way with the environment."
Schopfer is employing those same design principles in an another disaster-inspired project, a conceptual habitat he calls Harvest City.
In January, 2010 a massive earthquake leveled Port au Prince, the capital of Haiti, leaving more than 300,000 people dead and millions homeless.
Harvest City, says Schofer, would float in the bay of Port au Prince as a temporary home for the displaced and center for commerce.
[Kevin Schopfer, Schopfer Associates]:
"In the situation of Haiti, it allows Haiti to breathe a little and give people a place to go while they are re-growing things on land. It creates a new industry, which it would, an ongoing industry and it creates a very safe haven, if you will for schools and ect."
Harvest city would be three kilometers wide and comprise farm land, residential areas, and markets, all connected by canals.
Like NOAH, Harvest City would be based around sustainability.
The design calls for clean energy generation, rainwater collection depots and desalination plants to make water fitr for for farming and human consumption.
Schopfer's ideas have received mixed reviews. Many applaud the designs on paper, but some critics say they belong in the realm of science fiction.
As for Schopfer, he believes the kind of self-sustaining future described by his arcology designs, will arrive sooner than the critics realize.

For Science, They Might Be Giants
For Science
Newscaster:
There has been a spacecraft sighted
Flying high above the sky
Sirens declare there's one among us from Venus!
Lt. Anne Moore:
Volunteers! We need volunteers!
Soldiers to meet them.
Have no fear. Have no fear. You will be killed right away.
Male lead:
I will date the girl from Venus.
Flowers die and so will I.
Yes, I will kiss the girl from Venus for science.
I'm so brave. I'm so brave. I'll be her love slave.
Lt. Anne Moore:

He'll be her love slave forever.
Male Lead:
