wire-less Power

reference


I think Powercast is the next step in revolutionizing architecture...not in necessarily the way curtain walls did for modernism, but the way electricity did for building. Imagine not having to wire a house? an office building...a city?

As simply as creating a "utility" tower (a la Ito (Sendai Mediatheque or L. Khans, Salk Institute) that can distribute this radio-wave like power, a small unit within the buildings could run all their equipment, gadgets... all without wires. Construction costs go down, construction time go down, the confusion and oddity of small boxes placed on the walls is eliminated.
