This modular installation features a greenhouse and a conversational assistant. The greenhouse allows a culture of Tricholoma Matsutake mushrooms to grow, while the fans spread their spores in the exhibition space. The viewer becomes a vector for the reproduction of this fungus that usually only grows in certain ecosystems during post-fire reconstruction. The conversational assistant ALIZEE.interactive_v0.1 learns from its exchanges with the spectator, who leaves a trace of its passage in the chatbot’s source code. A live archived maintenance by video surveillance takes place during the entire exhibition. The system is presented as a two-hearted skinned system whose workflows.fluids are made visible. The alternate ignition of the device allows two speeds of existence to the proto-ecosystem, between active system and cold beast.
