CAMOUFLAGE
Uma Publicação Experimental sobre as Transformações Adaptativas de Corpos Artificiais
Roberta Miranda
CAMOUFLAGE is part of a research project exploring how vivipary in plants, particularly the facultative type, can be metaphorically associated with phenomena such as affective computing, which continues to expand significantly in the field of Human–Computer Interaction.
This reproductive phenomenon is explored to establish a possible analogy between the adaptive behaviors of botanical organisms and those of the intelligent machine, making it possible to understand how the artificial body synchronizes with its environment.
By analyzing the hostile habitat and the behavioral and physiognomic transformations of both bodies, a new term is coined here: digital vivipary. Translated visually through an experimental visual essay, it unfolds the relational dynamics between the person, the machine and, above all, the primal.
