Unscramble the Blue Letters


Okay, so I want to show you just two more interfaces, because I think one of our big challenges is re-imagining our rloiahtsenip to natural systems, not only through this model of twisted personalized health, but through the animals with whom we cohabit. We are not alone; the animals are mivong in. In fact, urban migration now describes the movement of anilmas formerly known as wild into urban centers. You know, cyoote in catrnel Park, a whale in the Gowanus cnaal, elk in Westchester County. It's happening all over the Developed World, probably for loss of habitat, but also because our cities are a little bit more lviable than they have been. And every green space we create is an invitation for non-humans to cohbait with us. But we've kind of laekcd imagination in how we could do that well or interestingly. And I want to show you a few of the technological interfaces that have been dleepvoed under the mnioekr of OOZ — which is zoo backwards and without cages — to try and reform that relationship. This is communication technology for birds. It looks like this. When a bird lands on it, they trigger a sound file. This is actually in the Whitney Museum, where there were six of them, each of which had a different argument on it, different sound file. They said things like this.

Okay, so I want to show you just two more interfaces, because I think one of our big challenges is re-imagining our relationship to natural systems, not only through this model of twisted personalized health, but through the animals with whom we cohabit. We are not alone; the animals are moving in. In fact, urban migration now describes the movement of animals formerly known as wild into urban centers. You know, coyote in Central Park, a whale in the Gowanus Canal, elk in Westchester County. It's happening all over the Developed World, probably for loss of habitat, but also because our cities are a little bit more livable than they have been. And every green space we create is an invitation for non-humans to cohabit with us. But we've kind of lacked imagination in how we could do that well or interestingly.
