Earthboot
Martin Howse
earthboot proposes a barely functional telluric operating system (OS), exposing the vampirism of current technology. Telluric or underground currents are translated directly into code for an earthbound operating system.

Pond Battery video visualises the electrical energy generated by MFC (Microbial Fuel Cell) in outdoor conditions during seven month time period
Bacteria Battery #5 is an installation of Biotricity series where the fluctuations of electrical energy generated by microbial fuel cells are sonified in eight channel sound environment.
MFC
Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a type of bioelectrochemical fuel cell system[1] that generates electric current by diverting electrons produced from the microbial oxidation of reduced compounds (also known as fuel or electron donor) on the anode to oxidized compounds such as oxygen (also known as oxidizing agent or electron acceptor) on the cathode through an external electrical circuit. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_fuel_cell
MFC #1
Fuel cell that harvests electrons from the bacteria in mud
MFC #2
microbial fuel cell (MFC) with household items and materials - The fuel cell will consume the algae (or other organic material) with two significant by-products, electricity (always useful) and methane gas. https://www.instructables.com/Simple-Algae-Home-CO2-Scrubber-Part-III-An-Algae/
