Standing Out

His vibrant and bright colours, certainly make him stand out in the crowd, no matter where he is!

James is definitely noticeable! Especially if he is wearing a red suit, shoes, shirt, cap, handkerchief, face mask and phone case, all in red as well!

James Maina Mwangi has explained that Nairobi locals would laugh at how he is dressed. As they knew his father. A freedom fighter who was poor. This is a rather stark contrast, visually and contextually. James always wished to be different than the rest. So, his unique fashion sense was an answer that God provided him with.

Social Media Star

Twitter user luvthispayne shared a handful of James’ photos explaining how good he looked. The thread got loads of attention. With 370,000 likes, 75,000 retweets and people discussing how he is on a different level to most with his style. James’ attention to detail and passionate dedication has swayed many on the internet.

“You have to ask God for three things to be like who I am today: taste, choice, and wisdom,” James told BBC Africa:

Gravity + Rocks = LIGHT

We want to share with you an incredible new gadget from a company called Deciwatt, they’re the 2015 winner of Shell’s Springboard programme and it’s called GravityLight. GravityLight is a gravity powered lamp which uses the earth’s gravitational pull to create light. How? Here’s how:

A bag of rocks is attached to the light via a strap, then as they fall to the earth the strap pulls on some gears which then drives an electric generator which powers a bright LED bulb and the gravitational pull is able to give continuous light for 20minutes. The beauty of this device? It will never run out of battery and the bulb will last a VERY long time. The device is aimed at combatting the energy expense in the developing worlds and as there are no running costs of these lights, the only payment is for the purchase of GravityLight and then it will last for years.

The reason for GravityLight? The ability to provide easy light to those that need it most in places such as Kenya. Following a second successful spell with crowdfunding the GravityLight foundation is now on a 50 Night Tour across 50 Villages in Kenya. What’s really great about this is that people in these villages regularly use a harmful lamp called Kerosene, with the GravityLight it provides safe and clean energy to the people of Kenya.
