sustainable design and sharing ideas
the Unreasonable At Sea team met
local entrepreneurs from the Moroccan Center for Innovation and Social
Entrepreneurship and TEDxCasablanca for a lively session of networking
and creative exercises including blindfolded painting.
few days ago they made also a stop at Studio IWA to meet designers and explain their project :
they are a team of creatif people : students, tech
entrepreneurs, and global thought-leaders who are currently
circumnavigating the globe on a ship with unreasonable at sea ,Their shared ambition is to leverage design-thinking and
entrepreneurship to solve the grand challenges of our time. exposing them to
13 international markets, and restricting them to the close quarters of
a ship, will yield uncommon and incredibly powerful results… the type
that can have a positive dent on history.
one of the projects result is "protei hackaton" they were sailing
around the world for 4 months at sea stopping in San Diego, Ensenada ,
Hawaii, Japan, China, Vietnam, Burma, India, Mauritius, South Africa,
Ghana, Morocco and now Spain
Protei is about an Open Hardware Shape Shifting Sailing Robot to explore and
clean the oceans. In order to address the scale and complexity of the
issues in the ocean – Oil Spills, Plastic pollution, radioactivity,
overfishing, Coral reef mapping, red tides and climate change.
what is amazing about their project every time they stop in a coutry they make workshops to and show people how to DIY the sailing robot .
here is the video to learn more about this invention
In the same day I had to coach fatima zahra who won on instagram's photo contest by meditel and envol web ( an international company specialized in internet and digital marketing) about my work and sustainable design .What is great about her is that she has a master in science of biology so it was perfect meeting I learned from her some new things too .
