To evoke an overwhelming feeling from the audience viewing this exhibition of their connection to micro organisims in the universe by mediating human interactions with nature through examples of communication. To broaden this depth of feeling by engadging the viewers to participate through conversation that is converted into a measured energy that is then represented visually through a juxtipostion with a similar energy exchange that occurs when bacterium "communicate" or "converse" with one another.
In this project, the idea for this work was born out of the fascination that I have with Science and Art. I seek to combine the two to create and foster better understanding of the scientific material to the general public by creating interactive installations that are informative and engaging for the participants and viewers. Beginning with creating an installation space that will measure and document the energy level within that space, based in part, by the conversations of its inhabitants. Using the energy data collected in the space and converting through another database into light represented by aura or luminescent panels that surround the space.
This installation space will also include a bioluminescent bacteria room that would document that bacteria generate energy exactly the same as humans. This data would be projected onto panels so that the viewers would correlate that the luminescence of living beings engaged in conversation is so similar that it would give the viewer a sense of connection between themselves as living beings and bacteria as living beings. Overall giving a feeling of a greater connection to the universe.
