BioReactor Combines Art With Utility

It won't be long before someone wandering down a street in LA will come across the Flower Street BioReactor. A combination of art and function, it will be constructed of transparent acrylic with LED lights fueled by a solar array that can change in color and brightness. The result will produce algae that can be made into oil by photosynthesis. Designed by Emergent, the shop window will be complete next year and is being designed to raise awareness of alternative fuels.
