A-life trees -- self replicating growth algorithms -- to
grow a tree on your computer desktop. Unlike other popularized forms of
a-life the rate of growth is controlled by realtime CO2 levels. The sensor
and software enable monitoring of the CO2 -- the information that measures
the global concern for climate change.
Stump
A printer queue virus that counts the number of pages consumed by the
printer. When the equivalent of a tree in pulp has been consumed the program
automatically prints out a slice of tree. Accumulating these pieces of
paper ‘grows’ a stump of the forest that you and your printer have consumed,
and a tangible representation of tree debt.
