SUMMARY:Hip Hop Inspired Architecture: Michael Ford
DESCRIPTION:Michael Ford’s talk on Hip Hop Inspired Architecture focuses on three interconnected realms – education\, practice and media to expose the subconscious roles of celebrated modernist architects and urban planners in the creation of the environments which necessitated hip hop’s birth. The multi-media lecture will include a live DJ who extracts samples of rap lyrics as dialogue\, commentary and counterpoints to popular architectural history and theory. The juxtaposition establishes golden era Hip Hop lyrics as a post occupancy evaluation of modern architecture. \nFord will provide examples of his pursuit to create a Hip Hop-inspired architecture through multiple efforts including working with pioneering Hip Hop artist Kurtis Blow to design and program The Universal Hip Hop Museum in The Bronx. He will also discuss his  international initiative\, The Hip Hop Architecture Camp\, a one-week intensive that uses Hip Hop culture as a catalyst to introduce underrepresented youth to architecture and urban planning. Currently\, less than 2% of all architects in The US are African American. Looking to change that\, Ford details how Hip Hop can increase diversity in architecture. Focusing on the intersection of theory and practice\, youth explore Hip Hop as a revolutionary approach to understanding\, conceiving\, and generating architecture for a just city.

SUMMARY:Site Visits: 'Zero Energy Ready' Homes
DESCRIPTION:Join us for two guided CE home tours in the Verde Village neighborhood of Ashland where all homes will earn Earth Advantage ‘Zero Energy Ready’ certification and an Energy Trust of Oregon EPS®.  \nThese homes will provide outstanding energy performance thanks to high performance features and systems that will significantly reduce power demands and allow rooftop solar PV to supply all the energy that will be needed for the homes. \nAttend these tours of one under-construction home and one recently completed home and learn what it takes to achieve the ‘Zero Energy Ready’ standard. You will get a first-hand look at what features go into these homes\, gain helpful resources\, and learn the variety of ways to communicate the health\, comfort\, savings\, and durability benefits of high performance homes to clients. \n\n\n‘Zero Energy Ready’ homes are approx. 30% more efficient than code built homes on average. These homes would achieve a ‘Zero Energy’ standard with the addition of an average-sized solar system. ‘Zero Energy’ is a home that generates as much energy on site as it uses over the course of a year\, making it essentially require zero energy. Learn more here. \nThese homes will feature several highly efficient\, environmentally friendly and healthy home characteristics: \n\nAdvanced building envelope and air tightness\n​High efficiency mechanical systems (ductless heat pump\, HRV\, tankless hot water heater)\nPre-installed solar PV capacity\nLow/No-VOC (volatile organic compound) materials and products\nRecycled insulation and locally sourced materials\nStormwater control\nEfficient water fixtures\nAdditional durable\, high quality materials and features\n\nQuestions? Contact Heather Kendall at hkendall@earthadvantage.org or (503) 968-7160 x20.
