my_moon by susana branco from portugal
designer's own words:
One day when I was returning home, I decided to steal the moon to place it just in front of my window. Now I have the power to control all nights my moonlight. Today I want a new moon, a first quarter or perhaps a great full moon.
My_moon is a curtain that takes the function, as any curtains, of covering the arrived light from abroad, for besides this function My_Moon works like a surrounding light.
It is operated by a command that allows controlling the intensity as well as to choose some patterns (already planned, through lighting of different combinations of leds).
My_Moon use a technology already available by Phillips(Lumalive technology).Thinking is ecology, and new energies My_Moon proposes to inserts in the mix between micro-leds and fibres a photovoltaic cell. The curtain during the day will store solar energy (in a battery) what could feed the respective leds, creating a sustainable system.
