[Bio art] Vanda_02
Life Support Systems: Vanda
Mateusz Herczka
2005
This project received a distinction award at Ars Electronica 2005.
Life Support Systems: Vanda explores the possibilities to upload signals from a Vanda Hybrida orchid into a Microsoft Xbox, as a kind of longevity through computing. The goal is to create a virtual organism from this orchid which can exist indefinitely, kept alive inside computer media in the form of a datastructure based on legacy ai technologies such as neural networks and hidden markov models. After the live individual is disconnected, its virtual counterpart will continue to generate signals which mimic the patterns of the original.
