Projektbeschreibung

In this installation, a communication with the organism Physarum Polycephalum is established through light, used as a medium to convey the message; first the information is translated into morse code, and then delivered to the organism using light signals that will pass through the petri dishes and the nourishing medium. The installation consist on a small surface with an integrated light system and living samples placed on top of it, creating a translating device that aims to establish a conversation between human and the organisms.

"Organismus Manifesto" is a draft manifest that tries to tackle the controversial use of living organisms in technological and research fields, and presents some controversial points such as organism rights or exploitation. It tries to reflect the possible questions that might arise when using alive organisms in connection to human and computational machines.
