Sustainability can be seen as taking eco-friendly ressources and giving it life and therefore great purposes. For example recycling/ upcycling. By using what is already there, we get to make materials or objects more long lasting, without creating new waste.

The aesthetics is what makes the sustainable into some kind of art form. Giving it new life, new meanings and perspectives. Since aesthetic is subjective, the creator has freedom in its expressions and can chose how the art work is presented. Making it a sustainable aesthetic.

==Documentation of microbial fuel cell==
  > first we made Agar Agar by mixing 1.78grams of Agar Agar with hot water in a glass container, through shaking it, it became more solid over time.
  > we pured the mixture into a plastic straw, let it cool off and then cut the straw into sections to get long solid agar agar pieces.
  > next we prepared the petri dish for the experiment: placing the solid agar agar in the middle. Using hot glue and pouring diagonal line over agar agar piece to create a wall
  > now the petri dish has two seperate sides with an agar agar bridge in the middle
  > we then glued a cable on each side that sticks out of the petri dish
  > then we placed assembled mudd on one side of petri dish over the glued cable and water on the other
  > we made sure it contracts the agar agar bridge in the middle
  > the microbial fuel cell is created
  > last step to confirm the electricity flow, we connected claw clips from a digital multimeter to the cables that stick out the petri dish and observed the electricity outcome
  > it ranged from 0.012 - 0.300 volt
