about

House Plants: Generative Plant Music is the second album in a series called Signs of Life, a deep dive into plant music.

It is an artistic endeavour to revive our lost connection with nature and invariably discover more about who and what we truly are. We are only separated from nature because we’ve forgotten our relationship with it. This series invites you to rediscover that connection.

House Plants is a collaboration between myself and a collection of plants from my home. My role was to choose musical elements like notes, instruments and timbres that I felt suited the raw electrical data outputted by the plant. I chose creative parameters for each song, and then left it to the plant to perform the song. The resulting song depended on the strength and quality of the electrical output from the plant at the time of the recording.

This album features Eucalyptus, Jade Finger, Snake Plant and Ripple Jade.

You can find individual track descriptions for each track when you hit the info button as you hover over each track name.

A very special thank you to each and every one of you who have shown their support.
