The first presentation of The Power & Illumination Project took place in Berlin and was a general introduction to the project.
This presentation provided a description of the step-by-step realization of the idea, discussing technical development, available power resources, financing, political and ecological aspects and so forth. This information was presented on a series of charts in one room of the exhibition space.
The other room contained an interactive installation where the basic principle of charging batteries using exercise eqipment, and subsequently powering light-equipment with these batteries was demonstrated. Here, the audience was encouraged to help keeping the light burning by contributing to the cherging of the batteries through physical exercise.
The Power & Illumination Project – An Introduction was presented at Spawasser HQ in Berlinin August 2004.
