James Levine: Showcase and celebrate technology and art. 2005 arts and tech fesitval - installations, exhibits...ramped up in 2006....in 2007 the Festival will focus on Playhouse Square and the festival will ramp up to be a truly formalized art and technology event. Want to show by example how Ingenuity cn be an icon for new ways to synthisize collaborations between technology and art. A model like the Spoleto Festival, for example.
Sudhir Ragupathy: became involved with efforts to "greenerize" the Ingenuity Festival. By building his connections with other like-minded people around sustainability, a Green Team was formed. Sudhir thinks in terms of a holistice view of Quality of Life by facilitating positive outcomes in Technology, Health, Entrepreneruship, Sustainability, Arts, Education, Environment. This reflects a systems approach to change. A synergistic approach helps to identify commonalities and align efforts.
John: interested in measuring and quantifying results in the 2007 Festival
Sudir: Ingenuity would like to benchmark sustainable practices. The Olympics has become a green practicing event and provides a good model. Some categories for metrics to be developed around: emmission, water, waste, energy
