Dating App for Trees

How to build a Dating App for trees?

Nowadays people meet online – it has never been easier to show your interest then swiping right. But how could a tree make decisions? Do trees make decisions? What if trees would talk?

After a short research, we discovered that trees are actually able to talk. They use the networks of fungi that grow in the ground and inside their roots. Through this system, trees can share resources with each other furthermore plants use fungi to send messages to one another!

Inspiration [1] from BBC

If this is true, what happens with the flowers and plants in pots? – asked ourselves. Struggling with total loneliness? As a solution, we decided to create a system that would allow indoor plants to communicate and fulfil their social need. Using the concept of wi-fi – we designed the network called the TRI-FI.

Project 2 - Cybernetic Prosthetics

Project 3 - Black Box

Designed to make you feel smart and self-confident. What is the secret essence of brightness?

According to Geroge Miller, the human brain is able to remember 5 or even 9 digits, but not exactly designed for difficult calculation. For this reason, we help ourselves by using our fingers, pen&paper or a calculator!

An ordinary calculator has:

- a cover
- buttons
- a battery
- a keyboard membrane
- a display – liquid crystal display
- keyboard sensors – with touch-sensitive circuit
- a microchip
- a solar panel
*some magic buttons designed for clever people

Here is a little video about calculators! I really liked the style of this video.

When I push a button, the keyboard sensor detects it and sends this information to the processor. The microchip identifies which key has been pressed and activates the appropriate segments on the display. The calculator has a small memory as well in order to operate with more numbers. After I have used one of the operation keys (such as +, −, ×, ÷), the calculator store the numbers in registers.

Miscalculator

I find interesting that we are using calculators in order to solve problems and facilitate our lives. What if the calculator would only create a problem?

For this reason, I played a bit with the buttons. I mixed up all the elements to create a conflict and also to think about numbers. We are addicted to numbers; numbers of likes, numbers of partners, numbers on the bank account, telephone numbers, etc. And still! This is the ultimate language – roughly everybody speaks it! What if something would go wrong? Suddenly the less would be more? The 0 would be cool, or the 3 would be even?

And also, this experiment reminds me of my mistakes, when I knew the method and solution but somewhere I miscalculated something and therefore the number was incorrect. My process didn’t fail but so did my numbers! Can numbers lie?

Pocket Calculator

I got inspired by the song of Kraftwerk - called the pocket calculator. Here is a little hint from the lyrics.

I'm the operator
With my pocket calculator
I'm the operator
With my pocket calculator

I am adding
And subtracting
I'm controlling
And composing

By pressing down a special key
It plays a little melody
