Meditations on Symmetry, Rhythm, and Line. Designing decorative solar panels with funding from the US Department of Energy: Asoleyo Architectural Solar
We're Proud to announce that our project, Asoleyo Architectural Solar, has been selected as one of 10 national finalists in the Department of Energy's American-Made Solar Prize! americanmadechallenges.org/s…#americansolar
Asoleyo is re-imagining solar cells' metallic contacts, transforming a utilitarian rectangular grid into something beautiful. Our cells can be combined and rotated to make larger patterns, like ceramic tile, and are compatible with existing manufacturing processes and materials.
What makes you #ThinkOutsideTheBox? For #AmericanSolar Prize Round 2 Set! Demo Day, it involves a virtual Q&A session. This is how @ENERGY, @NREL, expert reviewers, and semifinalist teams are #SocialDistancing while continuing #solar innovation, Brady Bunch-style!
This man with a soothing voice taps rhythmically on a flat disc of copper with a hammer, until it becomes a beautiful cup or bowl. It's strangely relaxing and informative, and I ended up watching it for way too long.
