There are many studies that show that music is good for the growth of a variety of plants. Well, the fact that it is influenced by light is known to everyone from the very first lessons of biology at school. I decided to combine light, music and plants in one installation with the name Akousmaflore Garden creative duet Scenocosme.
We talked on our website about how the composer Martin Messier made the Singer sewing machines sing, how the designer Tomomi Sayuda made the lamp sing, as well as how the artist Luke Jerram made the wind sing. Today we will tell you about how the artists Gregory Lasserre and Anais Met Den Ancxt, pairing the creative duo Scenocosme, made the garden sing. Sing and shine.
French artists Scenocosme have long been working on plant hybrids and digital technology. They explore the relationship between people and plants, between plants and light, between plants and music. And the result of all this research is the installations that they create in one or another part of the world. The last work of the Scenocosme duo was the installation Akousmaflore Garden, presented by them at the London Design Festival 2011.
Akousmaflore Garden is a closed space with a small garden full of flowers, bushes and even small trees. A motion sensor and a light sensor are connected to each of these plants, which react to changes in the lighting around them, as well as to the approach of people. And all these changes that occur next to them, these plants turn into music.
When a person enters the Akousmaflore Garden installation, he finds himself in semi-darkness. And only his movements and his interaction with plants make them glow and exude music. As a result, a seemingly ordinary garden turns into a light-musical plant universe!

Grove Gardens by the Bay in Singapore: Iron Trees and Light Show
The locals call Singapore "the City of the Lion and the Temple" because, according to legend, the first to set foot on this land was the prince from Sumatra, who saw Merlion, a mythical creature with a lion's head and a fish's tail. A temple was erected in honor of this animal.
