SeaDrift: Migration

  • Exhibited at Ars Electronica Festival 2022
  • Awarded 2023 CTCI Science & Technology Scholarship

Introduction

The "SeaDrift Seed," a non-powered electronic device, serves as a survivor of the apocalypse. Through speculative design, it demonstrates how a hypothetical species mutates and evolves rapidly based on the environment. Equipped with sensors, it transmits signals via Iridium satellites, revealing its environmental data and trajectory.

The retrieved information is interpreted by AI to generate dynamic visuals of hypothetical creatures, presented via TouchDesigner, exploring the plight of life in the contemporary ecological crisis.
