Efficiency of Mutualism

Dorita Takido (JP)

This work combines various power generation mechanisms: fuel cells that utilize microorganisms coexisting with plants, algae fuel cells using photosynthesis, and fuel cells employing water electrolysis. Plant growth is enhanced by electrical stimulation, as the weak electricity generated by each fuel cell is returned to the plants.
Braided Crawlies

Yumi Nishihara (JP), Yasuaki Kakehi (JP)

Braided Crawlies is a kinetic installation in which a colony of braids curve, bend, compress, and stretch.

Many feel comfortable dressing the same or conforming to those around them.A few, on the other hand, prefer to change their fashion style and hair color frequently. In this work, observers get an insight into the position of a minority whose sense of self is eroded by the pressure exerted by a large majority.
