In this experiment, the concept of interaction between three elements is explored through digital
technology. Using Arduino, it is possible to measure touches and visualize this data. To achieve this,
the following components are required: an Arduino Uno, a capacitive sensor, a breadboard, and a plant.
When a person touches the plant, the measured data will increase, while it will decrease when there is
no touch. At this stage, it is a simple setup, but it offers possibilities to create more interesting
visualizations, such as adding sounds or light effects.
However, the issue that arises is that it has been scientifically proven that touching plants can harm
their growth. Although this experiment offers an interesting approach to exploring interaction, we must
be cautious about the potential negative effects on the plants. It is important to consider ethical
considerations and the health of the plants when conducting such experiments. Therefore, it has also
been decided to set aside this experiment as it does not promote a symbiotic relationship.
