Filips Sta?islavskis' Human-Cloud Project turns human breath into clouds
One of the award-winning projects from this year's Design Academy Eindhoven graduation show explores how humans might use geoengineering to develop a more intimate relationship with the climate.
With Human-Cloud Project, Filips Sta?islavskis has created a series of tools that turn human breath into clouds.
Human-Cloud Project wants to challenge the use of geoengineering
The BA Leisure graduate wants to challenge the use of geoengineering, also known as climate engineering ? the deliberate large-scale intervention in the Earth's natural systems to counteract climate change.
Instead of using geoengineering to control the weather or minimise global warming, he would like people to feel a more personal connection with the climate.
The process involves extracting liquid from exhaled breath "Geoengineering proposes a technological solution to an existential crisis, by making us the masters of nature," said the designer.
"I was curious about how this technology was mediating our relationship to the climate system," he told Dezeen, "and whether it was possible to instead use it to create a sense of belonging and compassion towards it."
Sta?islavskis has designed two devices that allow a person to artificially create their own personal cloud, or for a group of people to create a shared cloud.
The first is a device that captures exhaled breath and turns it into liquid. It is a double-walled lab condenser equipped with a mouthpiece, which uses a process...
