Life Support Systems – Vanda
Mateusz Herczka (NL)
All characteristics of a living organism can be recorded as information. This installation confronts the possibility of enabling life to continue after death in the form of pure information. The Vanda Hybrida orchid is transformed into a virtual organism in a 3D environment. The characteristics of the actual plant and the changes it goes through are adopted for the virtual plant, which thereby becomes an independent organism capable of adapting to its surroundings.
