In conjunction with releasing music downloads on plantable artwork, Data Garden has produced installations and events at The Philadelphia Museum of Art, The Noguchi Museum, Institute of Contemporary Art Philadelphia, SXSW Festival, and Bartram’s Garden in Philadelphia, among others. Data Garden has received grants from The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage and The Andy Warhol Foundation for The Visual Arts.
In 2014, Data Garden launched the MIDI Sprout, a bio-sonification device. The converter enables musicians to use plants and other living matter as MIDI triggers for electronic music and research. The product was developed with engineer Sam Cusumano and was inspired by the work of Richard Lowenberg, Cleve Backster and Mileece.
