Symbiotic // Music With Plants

Symbiotic // Music With Plants // Mangrove. Artwork by Aric Attas

I’m an internationally recognized experimental sound artist currently working on a series of data-driven sound installations incorporating generative ambient music, data input from the natural world, including plants, and collected field recordings. Each composition tells a multidimensional story about a slice of our cosmos through data and sound. My intention is to use technology as an invitation for people to reconnect with the beauty of the natural word with a sense of curiosity, wonder and awe.

Symbiotic is a series of live generative music performances and recordings created in collaboration with plants. Through these collaborations I translate the electrical vibrations within plants into audible music creating compositions allowing us to hear the otherwise silent symphony of nature and experience our connection on an immersive level. 

The music that emerges from this collaboration is deeply relaxing, well-suited for meditation, yoga, stress reduction, and creative activities. Unlike traditional recorded music, generative music exists only in the present moment, infinitely evolving through adaptive generative algorithms that respond in real-time to data received from live plants. There is no fast forward or rewind, only the present moment. What transpires is a deeper connection between ourselves and the natural world.
