EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating experiment known as the Fruit-powered clock. In this innovative demonstration, each apple acts as a voltaic cell, creating an extraordinary battery. By inserting copper (orange) and zinc (silver) electrodes into the apples and connecting them with wires, electricity is generated. The image beautifully captures the intersection of science and nature, highlighting how everyday objects can be harnessed to produce electrical current. The vibrant colors of the apples against the metallic electrodes create a visually striking composition that immediately draws attention. This photograph serves as a testament to the wonders of scientific exploration in a laboratory setting. It exemplifies how physical and chemical principles can be applied practically to generate voltage through natural resources like fruit. With its educational value, this image holds great potential for school science programs or science education initiatives. It sparks curiosity among students about physics, chemistry, and electrical phenomena while showcasing an engaging hands-on experiment that bridges theory with real-world applications. Photographer Friedrich Saurer has masterfully captured this moment where art meets science—an exquisite portrayal of experimentation at its finest. This print stands as a reminder of our ability to unlock new possibilities by exploring the boundaries between different disciplines within natural sciences.
