Plant Music

๐ŸŒฟ Making music with Plants!! by Glen Walton

Here I will attempt to collect some of the amazing experiments happening that turn plants into musical interfaces.

Playable Streets have developed a public installation called The Plants over several years of experiments in public space.

THE PLANTS IS A SITE-SPECIFIC MUSICAL INSTALLATION THAT INVITES PARTICIPANTS TO CREATE THEIR OWN MUSICAL COMPOSITIONS USING UNIQUE DIGITAL INSTRUMENTS... PLANTS!

The installation has evolved a lot since our first experiments, new sounds, new shapes and new plants! Before the COVID lockdowns hit we were working on a new expressive version of โ€˜The Plantsโ€™ installation with Electronics engineer and Playable Streets intern Tony.
