AY Musik is a musician, sustainability activist, and budding social entrepreneur. He set an audacious the goal of performing live every single day, which created a problem: how can he power amps, mics, and instruments anywhere in the world so he could achieve this goal?
That question lead him on a deep dive into electricity, batteries, and ultimately product design, as he built a power box to make his shows possible. Now he’s working on making his “Sunshine Box” (as he calls it) an affordable solution for developing communities around the world.
All of this in addition to continuing to write music, perform shows, and help people realize that we all can be positive agents of change.
