Lemon Lights/Season's Greetings



The festive season is upon us and what better way to spend the holidays than with good friends and good times. And what better way to have good times with good friends than by making a battery? None, exactly.
In a leisurely chat with long-time friend and artist, Lukas Geronimas, we discussed how the basic elements of life have come to be often taken for granted. Clothing, soap, shoes, heat and electricity. An inspiring example of creating one's own electricity is that of William Kamkwamba, the African Having set a tight deadline to create our finished work of electricity within that day, we quickly got to work on making electricity. Our battery illuminated 3 LED christmas lights and was made from 100 lemons, copper and zinc. Happy Holidays!
