This project focuses on collecting ultrasonic signals emitted by plants under stress conditions, such as drought and root and stem damage, and converting them into audible sounds for humans using Adobe Audition. When plants can convey "stress" information through ultrasonic waves, does it mean that they possess communication and perception capabilities?
This project uses audio as a medium to reconstruct the rules of cross-species communication - communication is no longer the "privilege" of humans and animals, but a common ability of all life based on signal transmission. This has reconsidered the relationship and communication methods among humans, animals and nature. Traditional media have long focused on the perceptible expressions of humans and animals, thus neglecting the "invisible signals" of plants, which are non-human life forms. When technology breaks through the perceptual barriers and enables humans to "hear" the coercive expressions of plants, we can not only re-recognise their perceptual and communication potential, but also further explore the connection between these signals and changes in climate conditions. Obtain information related to climate change from the "sounds" of plants.
