For additional absurdity, we made the actors fake plants instead of real ones. For the play, we made up the following actors: | ||

Initially, we thought about utilising a humidity sensor and real plants that would trigger the play. But because of the long drying period it would take too long to bring the humidity levels back down, which would mean the play would be either triggered all the time or not at all because the humidity factor would remain the same. | |||
When experimenting with some real plants, we considered the possibility of triggering the plasma ball with the conductibility of real plant leaves. However, the conductibility turned out to be minimal and the effect did not suffice nor look impressive enough as the contact with the plant did not produce a large enough lightning bolt in the plasma ball. This is why we decided upon fake plants, which also raised the irony. | |||

The first concept included a real plant with a humidity sensor in its soil. The plant and humidity sensor would then be sprayed with water. The sensor would measure higher humidity levels and after reaching a certain threshold, music would be played. Then, the music and its bass would turn on the plasma lamp and make it glow to the beat. | |||
The | Due to the issue with the humidity sensor, we finalised a different concept: We thought about the plant and its autonomy. The first concept was relying on humans spraying the water bottle, which is why we changed it to make the plant more autonomous: The final idea focuses on nature and plants, recreating a thunderstorm | ||
