This collaboration with agrogeologist Peter van Straaten animates roots growing towards and drawing nutrients from rocks embedded with computer parts. Unlike traditional scientific models involving constrained cross-sections and static imaging techniques, our time-lapse version documents in-the-round, attempting to witness the plant’s agency through the multiplicity of movements of its roots.
