Bicycle pedal power
what if you can use your cycling capabilities to generate some power and store it... are you willing to sweet for some power ??
The Switch! Project
Switch! examines the presence and use of energy on a neighborhood, community, and citywide basis. Thus, it shifts away from the design of product interfaces and interactions in the home to forms that have a wider presence in the local and public space.
We continue to explore how design might enable people to relate more deeply and in an ongoing manner to energy use, but at an expanded scale- considering household-household, building-building, neighborhood-neighborhood interactions. To approach this, design must be extended beyond discrete people-product interactions to make visible and tangible the connection to wider-scale and longer-term interactions making up a locality, community, and society.
