Difference: Anatomy of Stone

Volkan Dinçer (TR)

Difference: Anatomy of Stone offers a perspective on entities and their environment based on the concept of “non-organic life.” Stones retain thermal energy from the sun, and as the sun sets, the heat inside starts to move out through the stone. Peltier modules on the stone surface harvest electric energy during this process, which powers an LED bulb until there is no temperature difference between the stones and their environment. The bulb, as an implant, is a sign of life, it makes the stone similar to any organism metabolizing energy.
