Jay Austin
She left her tribe, moved to Lagos and changed her name. Iliterate, she became homeless for a few years before developing the portable water collecting structures. In collaboration with designers, bioengineers and hackers, it was developed a system where water is also collected from the atmosphere with the help of a genetically modified fungus cultivated on top of the structures.
Even though the water is harvested under ilegal conditions (often with structures attached to abandoned buildings), it is widely commercialized due to its cheap price and high purity standards.
