</gallery>- | </gallery>I appreciate that this project was successfully exhibited at Winterwerkschau and received so much positive feedback. This was my first time incorporating plants into my artistic practice. At the beginning, I was unsure whether I could effectively apply the abstract concept and unfamiliar technics to the work. In the past, I faced many challenges and frustrations in the electronics and programming part, and the unpredictability of the unknown often made me doubt whether I could complete the project. However, throughout the process, I received a lot of support and assistance, encountered many surprises, and was able to integrate all the elements I wanted to experiment with. This resulted in a fully functioning prototype, a truly rewarding experience. | ||
There are, of course, still many aspects that could be improved. Although I took advice to present the interconnected wiring, including electrical wires and plastic tubes, as a readable diagram, I was still frequently asked about it during the exhibition. That is to say, my design was not intuitive enough, and the structure was not immediately understandable to the audience, requiring further explanation. As for plants, the Helleborus was already approaching the end of its life cycle. Ideally, it would have been best to show it when it was fully blooming. Lastly, the MQ-2 gas sensor data conversion into ASCII codes was successfully executed in the program, aiming to represent the concept of a dialogue between two plants. However, I personally feel that the interpretation was not fully realized, and I would like to explore other expressive approaches. | |||
As the first version of prototype, it is a fulfilled and successful experiment with many possibilities for further development. I’m looking forward to continuing this project in the future. | |||
