The tree seeking maintain homeostasis(νμμ±μ μΆκ΅¬νλ λ무)
The Tree Seeking Homeostasis is a work that creates its shape by processing data, adjusting the value of each dataset in order to maintain a state of balance. Bringing together the mathematics of the Golden Mean with concepts from eastern philosophy, and the virtue of the middle way, the work explores the scientific principle of homeostasis. The installation collects water tanks and screens to depict a series of living trees each shaped according to a unique genetic code formed by incoming real-time API data. A school of fish help to maintain the treeβs homeostasis in a way such that the branches are not weighted toward one direction.
The work explores contemporary discourses about both big data and the βAnthropoceneβ, the geo-philosophical concept at the centre of issues surrounding global climate change under the high-tech logic of late capitalism. Based on these discussions, the work expresses the relationship between competing sets of data in a way that is fluid, poetic, and open to the diverse possibilities so often overlooked when quantifying phenomena through data.
