The Video

The above photo by John Krøll shows the parade as it enters Peberholmen as part of Øresund Bridge.

The above banner was displayed as part of the event.

On that very same day in New York City, the People's Climate March took place. The above spread is from the newspaper called "Planet News" that was distributed during the march, by the people behind Center for Planetary Culture. If you click on the above image you can read more about CO2 Green Drive, under the image of the Electric DeLorean and Intentional Art headline.

On October 10th 2014, there will be an Awards Ceremony on Kongens Nytorv in Copenhagen. It happens to be on the same day as Copenhagen's "Night of Culture", where many thousand people roam the streets to engulf themselves in Culture. The above image is the artwork created by Will Gurley and Jacob Fuglsang Mikkelsen, and will be created in collaboration with Svend Sømod, Lasse Bentzen, Anna Vibe and Christian Rømer Riis of Grounded Craft Work. The Award Show will be hosted by Hollywood actress and Film Producer Kristina Korsholm and Sharing Copenhagen's own Jacob Hartmann.

The CO2 symbol was initially created by nearly 100 Electric Cars for the first CO2 E - Race/CO2 Green Drive Performance in connection to COP15 in 2009. In above image you can see the CO2 GPS tag that was shown LIVE on the Globe on Rådhuspladsen. More HERE.

The 3D CO2 painting will be placed in the above spot, where the event will also be held.




The colors of the KNOxOUT Paint that will be used for the artwork is "A Breeze of Grey" and "Purifying White". The painting is 4 x 4 meters and according to the producers of the paint, it will be equal to planting 16 threes. See more in below video.

THE UNION SQUARE CATWALK PERFORMANCE AND EXHIBITION - EARTH DAY NEW YORK 2012

After the CO2 E Drive Performance through the streets of the Big Apple, many of the participating vehicles entered Union Square for the "Cat Walk Performence" and Green Car Exhibition. The sun was out and Union Square was packed with New Yorkers celebrating Earth Day 2013.

In CO2 E Drive's own tent, people could see the "Tagging Performance" LIVE on a screen sponsored by the Greek Cultural Institute. 

It was wonderful to once again have Dave Delman and his Electric DeLorean part of the Cat Walk Performance

COPENHAGEN RUNNING ART MAN

The Copenhagen Art Run is an interactive Art, Action and Spiritual Experience in the lovely surroundings of Ishøj Beach, right next to ARKEN Moderne Museum of Art. It's not about who runs fastests or gets into goal first, but rather a way to co-create, interact and enjoy Nature, Art and Each Other. It takes place on September 12th, 2012 and is produced by VIBE. For more info about the event go HERE.

The above image with the Pink Triangle is the START of the Art Run and is placed just below the Art Museum ARKEN - that by the way is designed by Søren Robert Lund, who at the time when he won the design competition was a student.

Like Noah, he created an Ark. An Ark for Art. The above image of the brilliant design, is taken by Ronald Tilleman if you have not noticed.

Seen in the BLUE line above is the route for the runners. Based on this line, a CO2 tag will be created with the help of the CO2 Green Drive Smartphone APP. An APP that was created by our VERY jatlagged programmer Henrik The Gilvader, right upon touchdown from Burning Man and CO2 tag number 24.

The above flyer is what will be at START for the runners so they can take their Smartphones, scan the QR Code and thereby download and activate the GPS Tagging APP. Once they go on the run, the CO2 tag is produced when they move into the area that is programmed to pick up their signal. You can see the 25th CO2 Tag HERE, while it is being made and forever after. (Click on image to enlarge)

The above was the first Sketch for the CO2 tag for Copenhagen Art Run, but was too big.

Maybe it can be done like this next year? There is also many other Art Projects around on the Run. One such project is by Jakob Bue and Kasper Lynge Jensen with their project "Color Compostions with Dynamite and Weather" and one is said to expect: Dynamit, Paint, Pyramids and Runners. Mr. Lynge Jensen is also the man behind Sejerø Festival and part of The Triangle Project.

And Finally the Fine tune "Running Man" by the Danish Gentlemen from WhoMadeWho

UPDATE:

The above was the CO2 Tag that was done during Copenhagen Art Run 2012.

CO2 GREEN DRIVE AT BURNING MAN

Image above by Martin Ersted that was one of the Project Coordinators for the project at Burning Man 2012

June 15 2012 was a bearer of good news with the Burning Man Organization confirming that CO2 Green Drive was able to buy tickets to Burning Man. 

This is long awaited news and we are now full steam planning the activities in detail. 

The activities include an Art, Climate and Technology Theme Camp.



The Final version of the CO2 tag - Satellite image courtesy of GeoEye

Here we will investigate climate related issues in a co-creative and playful process. The objective is to establish an environment where we all feel comfortable and can experience what creative and innovative ideas that can spring when you set your mind free. We plan for the camp to be open 2-3 hours every day.

The plans will be developed together with the final group of participants and what their specialities are. 

On Friday 31 August we will perform the CO2 "painting" performance using renewable energy powered transportation means. Our vision is a big parade of bikers, pedestrians, stilt walkers, bunnies and electric Art Cars led by a brass band. All completing a GPS tracked CO2 painting on the open playa.
We also see Dancing. Definitely Dancing...Electric!

If you would like to learn more do get in touch and we will be happy to forward you
