COTree Scripting the Truth

Published:22 June 2015Publication History

ABSTRACT

COTree is a physical interaction design installation shaped as a climbing plant. COTree is composed of smart materials, and electronic design tools like Arduino. The installation has leaves that change shape and color depending on CO2 concentrations in the surrounding environment. When the audience experiences a plant withering caused by too much CO2, they become aware that pollution is happening all around us -- the audience is breathing the same air as the plant! How do you get away from the pollution, and where should you go?
