Movement is a hybrid bio-system that recognizes human body movements using Mimosa signals. Each Mimosa in the system is equipped with a bioamplifier that transmits the plant's sensory state to the computational hub, thereby linking the system to numerous plant units. Using an artificial intelligence algorithm, the computer analyzes body movements from the plant’s perception based on the biosignals’ waveform, strength, and timing. When the audience enters the system and moves their bodies, the system senses the movement through multiple plants and generates a specific sound field based on those movements. In this system, the interaction between the plants humans perceive and the "dance" the plants perceive will be fully presented.
