Last week we used Jan de Weille‘s ECG (electrocardiogram) equipment to do a quick experiment. Gaspard and Sandra Bébié Valérian of art-act were starting a new project on mycelium and asked Jan (a scientist, who had also worked on sonification of electric fish and motoneurones) some questions about sonification of champignons.
An image of our first experiment. Jan thinks we just mesured the apparatus’ imperfections. (We had no idea about the response range nor about delays.) I was excited to see the potentials change when I talked to the mushroom, and Gaspard was excited about all. We had a nice range of reactions from scientific to almost chamanic.
Wondering what this tells about art-science projects.
