| ‘Happy Birthday to You’ is an artistic research project inspired by the similarities between how nature change over time and how analog electronic signals work. A digital signal consists of only 0 and 1. Analog signals, on the other hand, operate on a continuum of numbers between 0 and 1. Whereas a digital signal is a binary outcome, an analog signal is a process of constant change. | |||
| The nature that surrounds us changes just like an analog signal. The sun doesn't rise and set like a switch (on-off/ 1-0). The sun is constantly rotating, and its light gradually gets brighter and dimmer. The same goes for the way a day goes, the seasons change, and even the way all beings are born and die include human. Life is a continuous process of change. It doesn't change digitally, it changes analogically. | |||
| 'Happy Birthday to You’ represents poetically the constant physical change of nature actor as analog signals in real time. It proposes a new dialogue about the circularity and continuity of time and the relationship between nature and technology in the context of the current environmental crisis. | |||
| ==Technical solution== | |||
| *1. put birthday candles in snow (snow cake) | |||
| *2. Install the camera facing the snow cake and monitor | |||
| *3. connect the camera to the monitor. | |||
| *4. cut the video cable connecting the camera and monitor. | |||
| *5. put the two cutted cables into the snow cake | |||
| *6. Snow has little conductivity, and water has a high conductivity. As the snow melts into water, the amount of active electrons between the cutted cables increases. | |||
| *7. The snow cake appears on the monitor affected by the process of melting the snow cake itself. | |||

| ====Sound==== | |||
| *Sound  1 :   The moment the fire meets the snow | |||
| *Sound  2 : The moment the water drops falling on snow and fire | |||
| ====Technical position==== | |||
| *A microphone is used to amplify the sound. | |||
