Inoculated  A speculative organism born out of the symbiotic relationship between fungi and network devices.

It questions the possibility for a hybrid organism to be born out of this deep entanglement between nature and technology infrastructure. After billions years of evolution, can there be an organism that mutates to take advantage of the ubiquity of radio waves in the 2.4GHz-5GHz spectrum as a source of nutrition or communication? If so, how might it look, interact, sense, and communicate.

Cumulus  Cubesat-like networked device monitoring the Mexican-US border searching for clouds crossing the geopolitical division.

Using near-real time satellite images, Cumulus offers a global perspective free of political demarcations, embodying the Overview Effect, a cognitive shift in awareness experienced by astronauts by viewing the earth from outer space.

Symbiosis.live  Part digital, part physical, fully alive. Symbiosis.live is an estuary website where microscopic organisms meet their digital equivalent, internet bots.

Together, they begin to develop a symbiotic ecosystem, bots travel the world through underwater cables to deliver food, oxygen, and light into the bioreactor. The cells, in turn, modify servers to lure or repel internet bots. Humans are invited along, but only as observers.
