how many times can you spot the letter "c" in:
[neither] a brand, [nor] a copy-righted artwork […] neither a flying sculpture, nor a symbol or an aestheticization of some good, politically correct eco-sustainable practice, museo aero solar is firstly a community.
build it yourself! build it together!
the aerocene backpack is a portable floating kit, which enables anyone to launch their own aerosolar sculpture and start sensing the ocean of air, lifted only by the sun,without the use of fossil fuels, helium, hydrogen, solar panels, or batteries.
with only heat provided by the sun, the enclosed aerosolar sculpture lifts several sensors contained within the sensair device that captures atmospheric data such as temperature, humidity, pressure and air quality.
a poetic tool for imagining a renewed era without fossil fuels, the aerocene backpack is a sculpture that is intended to be borrowed or built autonomously, and is always evolving through an ongoing, collective process of construction through an open-source approach.
have you floated with the backpack?
share your experience with us! write to |||email_address||| the aerocene backpack is currently being tested and developed by a passionate global community of artists, geographers, philosophers, thinkers, speculative scientists, explorers, balloonists, and technologists, and many other enthusiasts.
in 2016, the aerocene float predictor was developed, a global forecasting system utilising meteorological data to predict flight paths of aerosolar sculptures as they drift with the winds, challenging geopolitical borders and weaving trajectories that become signatures petitioning for the de-carbonisation of the air, and towards independence from fossil fuels.
the aerocene app is based on the float predictor.
a global forecasting system that utilises open meteorological data to predict flight paths of aerosolar powered sculptures circling around the globe without co2 emissions.
incorporating real-time information from 16-day forecasts of wind speeds at different altitudes, the float predictor is a navigational tool used to plan journeys in the aerocene epoch. it allows for endless virtual journeys around the globe without co2-emissions lifted only by the sun and the air, carried only by the wind, beyond national borders.
a community tool based on an open source code which emerged in 2012 from an idea of aerocene initiator and community member tomás saraceno in conversation with lodovica illari at the mit department of earth, atmospheric and planetary sciences (eaps), glenn flierl, bill mckenna.
since then, the trajectory computation, visualization and design has been developed by cambridge university space flight (cusf), ingo randolf, roham fayazy, studio folder and angelo sameraro. the journey of the float predictor app has been uplifted by aerocene foundation, studio tomás saraceno, publiclab, imperial college london, radio amateurs de and uk, and the uk high altitude society.
