This is a futuristic narrative interactive installation design based on technological diffusion and research from an MIT team on ultrasonic waves emitted by tomato plants under stress. In the envisioned future world, a company called Plant Music cultivates 'musical crops,' collecting various sounds produced by plants through regulating their growth environment and physiological conditions, which are then produced into 'plant music records' for distribution. A tomato plant serves as the company’s celebrity singer, beloved by many for its unique and high-yielding compositions.





INTERACTIVE METHODS

 In terms of audience behavior guidance, the interaction is achieved through an exaggerated button. Since the tomato is portrayed as a celebrity, the design draws inspiration from the reality TV show America’s Got Talent, where judges press a Golden Buzzer to select contestants. In the design, considering color coordination, the button is set in red and placed on three yellow interactive pedestals at different angles. By repeatedly pressing the button, the audience can rotate the tomato star to different orientations. Through this repeated pressing action, the playful nature of real-world entertainment collides with the serious core theme of technological diffusion conveyed by the work, ultimately creating a sense of absurdity within the behavioral experience.
