Sketching the Ethical Hardware Kit

Tile-shaped little 5-edged boxes

The kit consists of urban-mined hardware, and electronic components that don’t need soldering and can be assembled like puzzle pieces. It will all be connected to a fairly and sustainably produced ATTINY. It is powered by a large ceramic bowl, resembling the kitchenware at Judy Chicago’s dinner party.

The power source includes soil with the bacteria that breathes electrons. It should be stable 5 Volts if you water is regularly added. We don’t know yet if there are enough of those bacterias in the clay – will need to check back with the biologists. The colours should be natural colours like blueberry, henna, etc. We can make our own ATTINY programmer with a PCB.
