The BioGame ‘Blocksworld repopulated!’ gives you the opportunity to plunge into a labyrinth populated by microorganisms that you can interact with. Instead of encountering programmed entities in ‘Blocksworld repopulated!’ you are playing with living Euglenas, uni-cellular organisms that are part plants and part animals.* The Euglenas are situated in a real world laboratory and their behavior is tracked by a computer program that translates their movement into the game in real time.

Drosophila Karaoke Bar [2018]

Ursula Damm

The installation invites visitors to establish a direct exchange with fruit flies through a technical interface. A software is transforming human speech into signal that can be perceived by flies. It allows auditory feedback between people and animals. For blending human and fly songs we will use a special signal processing vocoder provided by Berd Edler of the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits.

Blocksworld repopulated! (2016)

Gestaltung Medialer Umgebungen at Bauhaus University

The BioGame ‘Blocksworld repopulated!’ gives you the opportunity to plunge into a labyrinth populated by microorganisms that you can interact with. Instead of encountering programmed entities in ‘Blocksworld repopulated!’ you are playing with living Euglenas, uni-cellular organisms that are part plants and part animals.* The Euglenas are situated in a real world laboratory and their behavior is tracked by a computer program that translates their movement into the game in real time.

Performing Polyphony

Frederic Blais-Belanger

Performing Polyphony explores collaboration between species: While the dancer performs, her movements generate air streams into the water, triggering the glow of the algae. Their emission of light is then perceived by a photosensor and translated as sounds that will feed the performer's motion, thus creating a complete loop between the two organisms.
