A sound exhibition where plants can play music

About the project

For this school project, we worked in groups to create sound that interacted with humans.

We probably all experienced forgetting to water a plant and therefore watched it all withered. This project was an experiment to make plants “talk”. With help of an Arduino and several different sensors, we were able to make the plants interact with human contact, and play music through Ableton.

I designed the Ableton project for the watering and light plants. Every sound triggered was set to the same scale, so when “making them talk” it would sound harmonious.
