In Search for Competition Committee People

We're trying to get a group of people to put together a proposal to organize a competition.

There's a kernel of an idea by Suman Lee, an intern that works at my office. Roughly, the idea is I think to get people to critically think about alternatives to the kind of podium-and-tower-type urban architecture that Vancouver has been developing - it's something that the developers and the city somehow find successful. Brent Toderian talked about this at his AIBC lecture - not that I was there, but Suman was!

So, what we kind of need are people to figure out how to bring this idea into reality! Produce a bunch of stuff like a deadline schedule, entry details, propose and promote it to the people that need to know - ie the AIBC, the interns, possible jury people. Essentially the operational "working documents" of the competition idea.

So far, the interns should be able to book the AIBC Gallery for 6 weeks in July-August. So that's the main deadline.

Are you interested?! And / or do you know others that might be? :)

I'm at Steamworks again Friday Jan. 5th - hope to see you then!
