DESCRIPTION:How might American Cities and towns be transformed if gasoline costs 
 tripled or quadrupled and SUSTAINABILITY became the priority? This unique 
 course combines theory of green urban-design with high-level 
 computer-graphics to create vivid and compelling visualizations of how 
 local communities might be transformed in the coming years as the 
 principles of resource-efficiency and sustainability take root.  Students 
 will work in small teams to research, conceptualize, and digitally create 
 an outpouring of simulated images –“visualizations”—that 
 realistically depict site-specific scenarios of hypothetical, 
 ecologically-sustainable local communities in  the S.F. Bay Region.  Such 
 student-produced imagery could then gain high exposure by being released to 
 local media for the purpose of influencing public policy and promoting 
 actual projects.  The 6–session course will focus on use of 
 “SketchUp”, a ground-breaking 3-D  computer modeling package (PC or 
 Mac) known for it’s ease of use, flexibility, and appropriateness for 
 initial concept-development.  Students will gain working knowledge of a 
 powerful computer tool that can be used in all future design work. $100. 
 Students need to supply their own computers. For more information: (415)
