In Symbiosis with Pyrocystis
For this project, I want to create a platform where Pyrocystis fusiformis and the viewer will be able to socially interact by the forms of sound and dance. Navigating Donna Haraway idea of making kin with the Earth-bounded, I aim to bring the viewer to looking at the micro-organism in a different way, and making them both work in symbiosis.
In a dark space, I intend to invite the viewer to perform some movements that will be transcode into vibrations for the phytoplancton. As a feedback, it will emit light that will then generate sounds, feeding the dance of the participant.
This feedback loop will thus become a conversation that, like dance, will demand a mutual respect from both parties and a constant attention to the partner in order to find a certain synchronism.
