Abstract:


    Combining ecology with machines to build hybrid systems can lead to novel organic materials, interfaces, and interactions as future sustainable technology. This work combines plants with artificial sensors and analyzes their perception of the natural environment through intelligent computing. We also propose a novel approach to apply the biofeedback of multiple plants to the art practice. This research not only contributes to the development of sustainable technology but also provides a new perspective in the field of digital art.
