Earn to Burn

We had to design a "kiosk" to be placed in Stanford's "Green Dorm". The aim of this interactive experience is to get people to become more aware of energy conservation. Our low-budget video is just to explain our basic concept, of making the user aware of how much energy they're "spending" by making them work for it.

Avantika apologizes for her lack of acting skills.

I don't have an account, but: It was quite lovely (I don't know what your problem with your acting is, but I thought it was great). I love the content, it's a very creative idea and I think it's well executed.

i TOTALLY resent that dip, it was COMPLETELY impromptu!

this is a really good idea. well done. i miss ur room, anka.

quality of the video aside, i think the concept is great! i really think this idea could open people's eyes to the true costs of energy and thus motivate them to make some behavior changes in daily life. knowledge is power (pun intended) and this could make people much more conscious about waste. it would at the very least put things in perspective for them. i know that i at least know nothing about how much burnt coal/carbon released/calories/minutes-on-a­-bike each appliance requires...

Really creative concept to promote awareness of energy use!

haha, fine i take that part back

but then all that means is that your ingenuity and acting skills are so brilliant it sounds like it was written for you.

(am i off the hook?) :D
