The designer collective FabLab Dynamic is interested in creating lamps that use alternative sources of energy.
In Deep Loop (2020), presented at Taipei Biennial 2020, the acid produced by the plants via photosynthesis drives these devices to generate the electricity required to power the LED lights. In order to create this self-powered system, this project is illuminated by 60 sets of high-voltage electrodes to light up the lamps, which need regular maintenance. These LED lights go on at a preset power, so as to offer constant light wavelengths that stimulate the plants’ growth.
