SOLAR HARVEST
Sunlight is omnipresent in public space and best of all, it's free. How can we collectively harness this energy source and what would we like to use it for? In SOLAR HARVEST we explore the potential of small 6 volt solar cells and use our solar harvest to power electronic elements like motors and LEDs. To create functional circuits, we combine them with textile means, such as conductive yarns and fabrics. Within this convergence of electronics and textiles, known as e-textiles or electronic textiles, we explored the interplay of material, form and function and learn how to connect the electronic components.
