Atmospheric River 2
Windcrow
This project explores the idea of capturing wind energy as observed in the movement of plants. Initially inspired by the lift wind energy created in birds or bird mimicking inventions like kites, it questions the idea of a turbine and searches for ways to hack into the natural oscillating mechanism of a plant for energy [...]

The task to produce energy with wind led us to look into what materials we can use to create an efficient windmill.Research was done in recyclable materials, common use objects that end up in the garbage, broken toys and plastic bottles. But these were almost entirely made out of different kind of plastic materials and [...]
