Exhibition

ZOE is a temporary co-existence between reishi mushrooms and a custom-made robotic system. With ZOE, Noor Stenfert Kroese and Amir Bastani explore the possibilities of internal communication between its robotic system and reishi. Within this seeming paradox between nature and technology, an ecosystem occurs that cares for and affects each other through sensing technologies. A tactile space of data visualisations is created around ZOE in which visitors can explore ZOE’s outcome.
