Power-generating rocking chair
"A fantastic concept, beautifully executed with refined aesthetics and winner of the Incheon International Design Awards (iida 2009) green life. The chair uses the rocking motion of the sitter to generate power to run a reading lamp. I do hope Rochus Jacob intends the reader to delve into my favorite author Haruki Murakami the master of post modern, magical realism."

Solar Columns
The past two summers I've worked Usdan Center for the Creative and Performing Arts. One of my colleagues, a ceramics teacher, worked in the context of environment sculpture. Two summers ago, she had an installation at the Hecksher.
"This innovative environmental art piece, inspired by the Egyptian colonnade at the temple of Aman Ra in Karnac, is created entirely out of locally harvested bamboo, jute rope and solar lighting. Together these sustainable local materials represent ‘eco-friendly’ as an art form."
