POND, microbes that give water a voice
Immerse yourself in a magical evening light symphony and discover what the water has to say.
The outdoor light installation POND (Power Of Nature-based Design) gives water a voice by measuring her health and revealing her well-being through magical colour projections. The colours and rhythm of the light change based on the condition of the water. This process operates fully independently. It is powered by energy generated by bacteria in the water via microbial fuel cell technology.
After four years of development by Nova Innova and its partners, this innovative system is now on display for the first time in the water at the Van Abbemuseum during Dutch Design Week.

Project by: Nova Innova in collaboration with Waterschap De Dommel, Rotterdams Weerwoord, Hoogheemraadschap van Schieland en de Krimpenerwaard, Hoogheemraadschap de Stichtse Rijnlanden and University Southampton.
