"Air, although ethereal, can move matter. Air, which appears most unsubstantial and immaterial, moves matter, moves leaves, and moves flowers.

MachineARIA is an installation that invites the viewer to contemplate a hybrid ecosystem - natural and artificial - of electromechanically modified plants. These augmented plants contain the source of the wind that makes them sway and caresses them.

A custom circuit with a PIC microcontroller is connected to five motors with their propellers and LED's, each one grafted to the culm of a bamboo plant. The motors and LED's are turned on and off sequentially: the resulting motion simulates a delicate breeze wind blow ."
