Prior
to the filming of The
Secret Life of Plants, Richard Lowenberg
had been doing a project series, titled "Bio-Dis-Plays".
Working with NASA technical support, multi-channel bio-telemetry
systems (EEG, EMG, EKG, etc.) were used to monitor performers'
physiology. These signals were then used as inputs to
audio and video synthesizers, in extended biofeedback-media
artworks. For the film, the choreographed audio and video
performance grew incrementally, from one plant up to six
monitored plants, then adding up to six dancers wearing
small EEG and EMG radio telemetry sensor/transmitters.
