As some of you know, I've been working very hard on an art project for Burning Man this year called the Solarium. The Solarium represents an increasingly digital world by depicting a very simple natural event, sunrise and sunset, in almost 600 color LEDs, once every nine minutes.
The Solarium provides an enclosed viewing area and displays the show along the inside of its domed ceiling, similar to a planetarium.
Power for the Solarium will come from the sun itself. An array of 300 watt solar panels will charge deep cycle marine batteries during the day and the batteries will run the show at night.
I need your help getting the Solarium completed. Please visit the Solarium's kickstarter page, watch the video and donate what you can!
