On Friday, July 8th, the all day Fifth Annual Building Information Modeling Symposium: EXTREME BIM will be taking place at USC, School of Architecture, Los Angeles, California. The speakers for EXTREME BIM 2011 were instructed to give presentations that advance the idea of building information modeling, show things that most of the audience may not be aware of, and demonstrate that BIM is cool and cutting edge!
