People asked me to make a hat, so I did. Bloom when there is sunshine.I posted an Art by Physicist prototyping video on Bilibili for an ASCAorganic solar-film wearable application when the #TechFashionDesignChallenge was launched. Super low-key. Who would have thought it went a little viral: 70K+ views within two days and 200+ comments. Lots of asks for a hat (and another thing which I'll show in the future). If I were to make a hat, of course it wouldn't be a normal hat. So this became another weekend meditation in the past month, designing, sewing, soldering, programming, while listening to lecturers/audio books. Then photoshoots and video editing, plus playing the background music on the piano.
The full tutorial will be written up at some point as in my usual portfolio. Don't forget to submit your projects this weekend for the challenge this weekend. Judging is starting soon.
Flower motion is powered by solar energy. I only had enough time to make v0.1, in time to wear for my friend's wedding. Tried three different ideas of creating a blooming flower as shown in the video which will be explained in my tutorial later. Future iterations of better flower mechanisms to come. I'd also like to replace the current flexible solar panel by Jiang Solar with ASCA's flower organic solar module.
The little video that went viral was the one for the black crop top (new-product prototyping) shown in Custom wearable organic solar films - ASCA
