Biomodd: Intersections of Art, Ecology, Gaming and Advocacy

DESCRIPTION

Presentation about the progress of the second Biomodd version in the Philippines after 17 weeks of project development. Biomodd is an interactive and collaborative art project that integrates nature and technology. The aim of the project is to create an art installation in which different forms of plant life coexist with a fully functioning computer system. This system is built almost entirely from recycled computers, and plant growth is stimulated by the excess heat of the working electronics. Visitors can interact with the art installation by playing a multiplayer computer game that runs on this hybrid system. I was invited by Prof. Levy Achanzar-Labor of the UP Manila to come and talk for Philippine Arts students and faculty. The presentation starts with an overview of selected previous art projects. Subsequently the Biomodd versions in the US and the Philippines are explained in detail. The presentation concludes with a brief introduction about the relevance of the project for space research.
