Abstract:
Conceptual, creative and technical practices involving the ‘eco-digital’ have been emerging since the nineteen-seventies, however this field has become more significant due to the widespread recognition of the science surrounding climate change. While there are many emergent methodologies of the eco-digital currently at play, this research looks at artistic practices engaging plants as co-composers. Articulating various situational assemblages that entangle humans, plants and data, this paper starts with a discussion of pioneering media artworks engaging both natural ecology and digital technology, before explicating a selection of recent artistic works by the authors.
