“A Ritual for Floral, Cybernetic and Neuronal Intelligences”
is a live audiovisual performance and interactive installation that builds a temporary direct interspecies communication bridge between beings from the plantae, cybernetic and human kingdoms. By embedding a cybernetic Machine Intelligence to mediate the biological readings of a succulenta plant via the Pulsum Plantae circuit developed by Interspecifics and the artist’s own neuronal readings captured via an EEG (electroencephalography); this ritual speculates on a world where the distinction between natural and artificial intelligences are blurred.
✹ The resulting audio and video documentation was captured at the Vernissage of the exhibition “Stories for a More than Human World”, curated by artist Theresa Schubert.
