Metabiosis

Metabiosis is a collection of experiments about software art and digital processes. We are developing, writing, sketching, investigating and working on a series of pieces, or nodes, that are connected with each other. Each node is motivated and built around the questions left by the previous one. Because we are working in a modular way, we cannot predict the eventual results. more…

go_forth

go forth & * is the first Metabiosis node. It is an installation of 3 computers. On each computer we’ve placed an ecosystem. When you visit the installation you can create a personal data-packet to seed into one of the ecosystems. To generate a packet, a set of questions needs to be answered. All questions are about how you envision your packet to be. Is your packet very shy? Is it afraid to leave its home or is it more of a traveller? Is your packet screaming for attention or more of a loner? After answering the questions, the packets DNA is established and a new packet is born, and set free in its ecosystem.

hello_process

hello process shows a machine doing what it does best, deleting, copying and moving blocks of data. The installation consists solely of a computer and a printer. The computer functions as it usually does, as a black box theatre of processes. The only output comes through the printer, giving us clues about the activity inside, while in the background, the raw noise of the machine creates a sound scape, a sonification of this theatre of naive computation. more…
