Beings and Machines WiSe 2023 / "Physarum Polycepharum as an Architect "
https://ars.electronica.art/who-owns-the-truth/en/physarum-pavilion/
Initial Steps:
Project aims to give a space to organism and examine the behavior of conscious and continuous movement.
What if we provide a space where slime mold can sustain its life? This pavilion speculatively explores spatial solutions while considering slime mold as a resident.
The aim of the pavilion is to act as a live experiment, incorporating the growth patterns and responses of the organism to environmental cues as essential elements of the structure. Additionally, it aims to function as a live experiment, seamlessly integrating the organism's growth patterns and responses to environmental cues as essential components of its structure.
Keywords: living organism, 3D Printing, scanning, enclosed environment
Next Steps:
- Documenting different behaviors of slime mold, by drawing and video recording
- Dealing with the creating "best" conditions in enclosed site specific environment to support phsarum polycepharum's grow.
- Building a loop - feedback

+Project:
"The Garden of Martian Delights" is a researching and speculative images about Martian Habitat. Human being have been fascinated and addict to go with the planet of Mars for a thousand of year. Inevitable changes for Earth waiting for us in the near future, we understood that nothing will be same after the pandemic experience. Mars is not the closest planet to Earth, but the one with best conditions for to think a life in a speculative and real way. Or it might help us to understand how we can save our world?
