Blooming Cycle

 

created on: 06/14/08

Inspired by tufts of dandelion carried by the wind to disperse seedlings, Matthew Boyko and Christina Ng of Society Creative LLC created Bloom, a device that attaches to a bicycle and releases floating seed-bubbles as you roll through the streets.

Vegetable based soap and seeds combine together to make a dissolving "nugget" which is stored in a resevoir.

As you pedal along, air enters the front of Bloom and spins a pinwheel inside which picks up a small drop of a bubble-seed mixture and blows a bubble carrying a seed out the back as "exhaust".

Sooner or later the bubbles pop, dropping the seeds where they might find a small crack or a little patch in which to grow.
