Responsive Ecologies, an artwork in collaboration with the Zoo Society of London (ZSL), Musion Academy, and fellow artist collective captincaptin (Jonathan Hall and Gareth Goodison), is a public installation environment that questions our understanding of nature and our role in the disturbing shift in many ecologies due to the effects of climate change. It was installed at Waterman\u2019s Art Center in London, UK in 2010 and features green screened slow moving animals as captured from the ZSL taken out of their environment and digitally placed into the CAVE of the show. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The nature of interaction with the immersive exhibition means that a visitor to the space immediately becomes part of the environment. When attempting to perceive any of the animals portrayed within the space, the visitor reshapes the installation in real-time by causing slices of scan lines to disperse and intersect with other parts of other animals, challenging viewers to consider their roles in the shaping of ecosystems and as co-habitants of an environment shared by a host of other species. It highlights the dynamism of the numerous networks we exist within and reveals how our behavior is reactive and deterministic to a complex system of cause and effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
