我們能否創建一個可以通過數字等效物生長的花園,一個可以感知氣候、風向、化學成分密度以及昆蟲和動物相互作用變化的花園?《星際花園》 (Interplanetary Garden)是一個不斷增長的虛擬世界目的地,供數字事物休息和探索。保持著數字精神,氣候變化會產生影響的地方。是否有可能將物理世界的精神和能量傳輸到數字領域?  對於這項工作,藝術家 Henry Tan 和 雜草稍慢Weed Day 合作製作了一個來自世界各地的虛擬雜草花園。這個虛擬花園試驗了在虛擬空間內體驗植物治愈能力的可能性。他們創建了一個通用花園,同時還創建了一個由台灣和泰國植物組成的迷你實體花園。讓觀眾同時體驗物理和虛擬花園,從而通過所有五種感官獲得更轟動的體驗。 藝術家 Henry Tan 和 雜草稍慢Weed Day 能否在小型實體花園的幫助下,誘使觀眾將大型虛擬花園體驗為實體花園?

Can we create a garden that grows with its digital equivalent, a garden that can sense changes in climate, wind direction, chemical composition density, and insect and animal interaction? Interplanetary Garden is a growing metaverse destination for digital things to rest and wonder. In its digital spirit, a place where climate change has an impact. Is it possible to transmit the spirit and energy of the physical world into the digital realm?  

 

For this work Henry and Weed Day collaborated in making a virtual metaverse garden of weeds from around the world. This virtual garden experiments with the possibility of experiencing the healing powers of plants within a virtual space. They created a universal garden at the same time also creating a mini physical garden of plants from both taiwan and thailand. Allowing the audience to experience both a physical and virtual garden simultaneously, thus allowing a more sensational experience through all five senses. Can Henry and Weed Day trick the audience into experiencing the large virtual garden as a physical garden with the help of a small physical garden. 

本創作計畫與藝術團隊雜草稍慢Weed Day合作

In collaboration with : 雜草稍慢Weed Day (Taiwan)
