An Interspecies Communication Tool
______________________________________
This research aims to develop an installation allowing a feedback loop conversation between a performer and Bioluminescent Algae (as shown on the schema below). It has two main parts:
- The first one is to capture the motion of the performer and translate it into disturbance in the water to activate the phytoplankton.
- The second part is to capture the light emitted by the plankton and translate it into sounds in order to feed the performer's movements.

Project
As part of my Projektmodul Art and Biomedia: agencies of being, I am working on creating a platform where a human can perform a social interaction with Bioluminescent Algae ('Pyrocystis Fusiformis') by the forms of sound and movement.
