Data Tree
A living interactive digital garden
Year: 2020 -Bezalel academy of art and design, the Incobator program.
The virtual world is perceived by many as a metaphysical and abstract space, to which we escape. But reality is different. The environmental implications and resources required to maintain it takes a heavy toll on the planet. A 1-megabyte email consumes in its life cycle an amount of energy equal to 20-minute use of a 60W incandescent bulb.
The "DATA Tree" is a living garden that combines the virtual and physical world in order to reflect the transparent digital energy consumption.
