Green Gazing
A participatory movement class led by instructor Ashley Bowa with projection visuals and audio provided by Lesley Marshall. In a room filled with plants (brought by artists) and surrounded by screens, contact mics and electronic impulse sensors are hooked up to the plants which input on the projections and the audio. Supplementary video and audio samples are also used to create a soothing environment for the participant. A room of participants are then led through a 30-90 min movement class with this ambient video and sound connecting each other to the experience. The plants sensing the humans, the plants engaged with video and sound.
