the why

This week, we got a lot down. We made decisions regarding dimensions, materials, functionality, and such. We did a number of drawings, and talked through a lot of the design. Upon meeting with our professors, and Michelle, we made (again) FORWARD progress, which was exciting. We are all very excited at this point, and the positive feedback helped fuel discussion that has taken us in a slightly different direction.

Our desire to work with broken solar cells in attempts to make a statement about using recycled solar cells, has shifted to a new direction. We are now making a statement about the waste produced in solar energy instead of using the broken cells themselves.

This will be interesting.
We got together this weekend to work on assembling one cell and to play with resin and the broken solar cells. We tweaked the leaf design a bit and discussed further material options, etc.
We have lots to get done
