Connectivity and readymade practice : experimenting, manipulating and combining daily life objects in order to attempt, to force or to mystify a workable connection between them, at least to make it visible and/or possible. This exercise is to be considered as a warm-up, a first step towards a further installation or project.

Two meters (6 feet) added between the houses in a very long block improve connectivity in village-like style.
Pedetrians do not neet a 20 m right-of-way and a fully engineered street to walk through; a narrow path, just like in the old towns and villages does the job well and inexpensively. For every 20 m, costly ROW, four to five paths can be provided.
Vastly impoved connectivity at a fraction of the cost.

This was one of three tours offered at the Meeting of the Minds 2012 in San Francisco, CA.
Description:
Tour #1: Arts, Innovation and Sustainability Tour of Central San Francisco
This 1.5 hour walking tour will be lead by James Hanusa, Green Economy Advisor for Stakeholder Forum and New Initiatives for Burning Man Project.
The tour will start at the award winning, newly built San Francisco Public Utilities Commission headquarters, key features include onsite clean energy generation, 100 percent waste water treated on site and advanced daylight harvesting.

We will walk through the planned Resource Conservation District at Civic Center on our way to UN Plaza passing the Federal Building, which is the first naturally ventilated office building on the West Coast since the invention of air conditioning. The building is also an example of how building design can help slash emissions of greenhouse gases.
We will proceed down the emerging arts and innovation district of Central Market Street visiting multiple local arts groups such as art and technology collective, Gray Area Foundation for the Arts, and cultural avant garde organization, Burning Man Project. The 5M innovation complex will be the next stop with short interviews with developer Forest City and leaders from resident organizationTechShop, Hub Soma and Intersection for the Arts. Our tour will continue through the Yuerba Buena Gardens area including the Center for the Arts, the SF Museum of Modern Art, including a quick chat with the W Hotel Manager about his building, which is one of the first LEED Silver for existing buildings in the world.

TE employees walk alongside area residents in the three-mile American Heart Association Capital Region Heart and Stroke Walk.
it's surprising how difficult life now becomes when your internet connection is shut off unexpectedly . after 3 days of talking to a dozen people across several time zones, AT&T finally typed in the code needed to turn DSL service back on .
on day 1, customer support said the problem could not be on their end . day 2, the technician in India said the issue WAS was on their end - a shut off order had lingered in their system several days after an unsuccessful attempt to upgrade our service ... but since it was Sunday in California, nothing could be done . on Monday morning, it took 20 minutes to just reach a live person, then another hour to find someone to track down and kill the errant shut off order . of course, she did not have the power to reconnect service herself, but fortunately she did route it as a priority request and service returned later in the day ... normally it would have taken another day or two
i wonder if this business model will survive another 20 years ...
