Alternative Energy?

Lukas Bernhart (AT)

This project shows the risks of today's energy production and usage and questions nuclear power as a viable alternative to fossil fuels. Do we want to exploit the planet until there is nothing left to use or should we be risking thousands of dead people and making large areas of the planet forever uninhabitable? Alternative Energy? investigates different energy concepts and design solutions in the Solarpunk movement.

Thoughts on Day and Night

Maike Alisha Effenberg (DE)

By extending mechanical models from the 60s, you will find here a new approach towards nature and ecosystems. Contemplate the equality of the energy flow within a machine and within an organism. Both receive their energy from the light, react to it, and save it for processes at night. At least, this is what we think they do. So how much life do we find in a machine and how much construction do we find in nature?
