The conceptual starting point for this artpiece is the intriguing concept of symbiosis between living organisms and digital algorithms. Gatering live data from a living plant remotely, plant2pixel transforms these signals into parameters for a generative AI, resulting in a dynamic visual creation.
The interplay between the plant's natural rhythms and the algorithm's digital processes creates a unique relation. plant2pixel invites viewers to reflect on the interconnectedness of life and technology, exploring the potential for collaboration between natural organisms and artificial intelligence.
