Regarding "Singing Plants Reconstruct Memory" http://www.josimalaya.com/singing-plants.html
i think the stimulus response model is naive
there's a deeper issue
To say "memory" is already overcoding with highly anthropocentric interpretations.
And the "interaction" kinesics in the installation as documented in the video
have people moving like people and conventional people movements and tempi
so I would say it's yet more enrolling plants and plant em fields etc into anthropocentric frames of behavior and concept.
It is a very deep problem how could we interact with plants more not just "symmetrically" but more vegetally?
For example this image:
betrays far too much anthropocentric artifice precisely because it is legible. Indeed I find it lovely, and I mark the world with that delicate aesthetic, too.
To become vegetal is arguably an impossible demand, but I would prefer to pose this and get some insight rather than re-inscribe banalites, i.e. myself ;)
