Seed. Potato. Pixel. is an installation by the Interspecies Research Cluster Berlin that compares three foraging behaviors in identical labyrinths: North African harvester ants seeking seeds in a sandbox, blindfolded humans searching for potato piles by touch and sound, and digital ants using the ACO algorithm. Projecting all walking paths together, the project explores embodiment, interspecies sensory gaps, and algorithmic life, while releasing an ant path database for research.
