Sound invasions is an installation made from animal and plant invasive species found in Slovenia. Using a DIY system that interprets some levels of the plants’ existence, we will present a live creation of sound and image, generated by locally growing but non-native invasive plant species. Electromagnetic current, connected to the plants and the software (Pure Data, SuperCollider and Resolume), will translate data into sound, transforming the invasive garden into a noisy electrical circuit of synthetic samples of organic liveness, the essence of which, both in nature and technology, is based on variants inside the origin of constantly equal repetition.
