Schönes Projekt mit immer neuen Ideen: Social Design Network. Nur ein Beispiel: “Power To The Pedal. Bloom: Peddling Green” der Society Creative Ilc. – eine Art subversive, automatisierte Seifenblasen-Pusteblume. Mit Hilfe eines Fahrrads und Seifenblasen werden Blumen- und Grassamen auf der Straße verbreitet: “The Bloom device is meant to be a subversive and inspirational tool for our concrete jungles. Similar to the tuft of a dandelion as the wind carries the seedling, we propose a way of dispersing seedlings with bubbles and bicycling. Seeds are co-mingled with a bubble mixture and upon pedaling to your destination, you release the floating seeds which land in cracks and crevices throughout the city streets. Over time, the seeds grow into flowers and plants to create a green “fringe” to our sidewalks and streets.

Using natural ingredients; vegetable based soap and seeds, combine together to make a dissolving “nugget”. The resulting mixture resides in a reservoir inside Blooms aluminum housing. The housing is attached to the lower frame near the rear tire, similar to a exhaust pipe. Upon pedalling, air enters the front of Bloom and spins a pinwheel inside which picks up a small drop of the seed/bubble mixture and blows a bubble carrying a seed out the back as “exhaust”.
