Core77

(econnovation = ecologic-economic-innovation) If you are in the Bay Area before June 19th 2008, plan to visit "econnovation," a multidisciplinary showcase of sustainable design projects pioneered in the far West. And if you are going to be, or already are in San Francisco tonight, don't miss the opening:

"Get Fried up!" Friday, April 18, 7pm -11pm
The show officially opens its doors at 7pm. 'Teacher With a Bus' founder Jens-Peter Jungclaussen will be presenting his vegetable-oil fueled bus and speaking on the latest news and controversies on biodiesel and alternative fuels. Delicious finger foods fried in organic olive oil (later to be fuel for the bus) will be served throughout the evening along with cocktails from our sponsor Veev. Knoend will begin taking patients in their ReLife Clinic - a special clinic that designs the next lifecycles for objects. Show-goers are encouraged to bring photographs of personal objects that need a new life.
