Project

As part of my Projektmodul Art and Biomedia: agencies of being, I am working on creating a platform where the viewer can perform a social interaction with a different specie by the forms of sound and dance.

Within this class, I want to research about Pyrocystis Fusiformis in two specific areas. The first one will be on how to grow them and to take care of them in the best way possible in order to give them the best conditions and keep them alive. The second field of interest is in the way they glow. I want to try different ways to make them illuminate so I can find the best interaction for this piece. I also want to know their limits: How long can they glow? How many times? etc. These informations will be helpful for exhibiting the artwork.
