New Again

The most critical thing that I’ve learned this past one year photographing using my new process is that you must see everything new again. Every day when you wake up in the morning, treat it like a mini birth. When you go to bed, it’s a mini death. To see life from the perspective of a child is the goal. Fuel yourself with your lust for life and follow your intuition. Allow curiosity and courage to lead you and reveal your soul through the medium.

Benjamin Franklin Quotes

Benjamin Franklin was known for his wit and wisdom, often encapsulated in brief, memorable quotes. Here are a few notable ones:

  1. “An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.”
  2. “Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.”
  3. “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”
  4. “By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.”
  5. “In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.”

These quotes reflect Franklin’s diverse interests and pragmatic philosophy toward life and governance.

Solar powered iPad

Designing a solar-powered iPad involves several considerations, from the integration of solar panels to the device’s aesthetics and usability. Here’s a brief overview of the design aspects:

  1. Solar Panels Integration: The most efficient way to integrate solar panels into an iPad would be to incorporate them into the back cover. These panels should be lightweight, durable, and efficient enough to charge the device under normal lighting conditions.
  2. Material and Aesthetics: The materials used for the solar panels need to complement the sleek design of the iPad. Using transparent photovoltaic cells could maintain the aesthetic appeal while serving a functional purpose.
  3. Battery and Power Management: A solar-powered iPad would require a sophisticated power management system to handle the variable input from the solar panels. This system would need to optimize charging and ensure that the battery is not overcharged.
  4. Usability and Function: The design must ensure that the solar charging capability does not impede the iPad’s functionality. For example, the device should still be lightweight and comfortable to hold.
  5. Indicator System: An indicator system would be necessary to show the charging status and solar power efficiency at any given moment.
  6. Energy Storage: Considering the intermittent nature of solar power, the iPad would need a battery with a high enough capacity to store sufficient energy for use during times when solar power is not available.
  7. Accessories: Designing a range of accessories, such as a fold-out solar panel stand, could provide additional solar charging capabilities when the device is not in use.
  8. Software Integration: The iPad’s operating system could include features that optimize energy consumption based on the available solar power, such as adjusting screen brightness or limiting background app refresh.

This concept would push the boundaries of current technology and could make for a more sustainable, environmentally-friendly device.
