Discover how the ALICE project is harnessing the power of human waste to provide an alternative to fossil fuels. Part of Digital Design Weekend
How might our pee transform our homes into energy-generating structures? Harnessing the power of human waste, the ALICE project ‘living bricks’ use microbial fuel cell technology to provide an alternative to fossil fuels. The bricks power a bio-digital artwork which captures their data to feed an animation based on bacterial foraging algorithms.
Display created by Julie Freeman with Rachel Armstrong and Ioannis Ieropoulos.
Part of Digital Design Weekend (25-26 September).
