Nube De Oro - Leaf Writing Sys Test In order to allow the agave
to express his relation to light, and time, the piccolo
(piccolo.cc) is used for agave leaf "writing". The simple
'drawing' is based on the data from a hibiscus glass solar cell
acting as a light sensor that is transformed via arduino. The
power system consists of sixty six natural dye sensitized glass
solar cells -shaped after the seeds of teosinte (the mother of
maize)- and two supercapacitors. As soon as the growing agave
stalk starts flowering, the agave will start writing on its
leaves, as long as the cells provide sufficient power.
