–These are some experiments from 2017. INVESTIGATIONS/INSTALLATIONS Arising from the initial research we performed on the ultrasonic acoustic emissions – and hence possible communication – in plant roots, that materialized in the video-work Dialogue with 02.205, (reference1) we (Laura Beloff & Christian Brems) decided to continue this exploration. This now with the overarching goal of creating a form of live installation where the roots acoustic […]

process: testing shapes and materials
May 15th 2015. > Fly printer – new version is developing. Some food and habitat tests are done. This is a test version constructed from Danish design classic coffeepot Santos. (It seems that the eppendorf tubes are too small for long-term food delivery due to food drying and not having enough time to produce more […]
