La scatola di Giotto

November 20, 2009 5:47 pm

Saturday November 28th, 2009, from 10 am till 6 pm, at  PAV/PARCO ARTE VIVENTE there’ll be the workshop La scatola di Giotto, with Ennio Bertrand.

We are going to develop together a bio-active work producing electric light with natural fluids extracted from fruits. Electric light that without battery or connection comes up thanks to an electrochemical reaction between natural liquids and metals softly shining.
Then, this light will be stored in an electronic circuit until its saturation when a flash lights up in the LED. This kind of cycle is going to continue, from flash to flash, it gives birth to an incubator of electricity flowers. So, by energy sun collecting into the fruits during their growth, digital flowers turn these power and energy into new light.

Materials: tomatoes, salad, lemons and other vegetables, juice extractor, leds and circuits, copper and zinc.

The event is part of the events Contemporary Art, ESOF2010 e Share Festival.
