They developed a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.musicoftheplants.com\/en\/#aboutus\">device<\/a> out of this research, that can read the electromagnetic vibration of a plant and translate it into music.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_28999\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-28999\" class=\"size-large wp-image-28999\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.westminster.ac.uk\/thevoiceoflondon\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/64\/2018\/12\/IMG_1100-1024x627.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"740\" height=\"453\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-28999\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Matteo Chiarenza (Orlando DOOm) with Olympia. Picture by Ugne Maladauskaite<\/p><\/div>\n<p>An Italian born and now London based multimedia artist Matteo Chiarenza (<a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/orlando_doom666\">Orlando DOOm<\/a>) in the interview with The Voice of London explains how the plant music works. Orlando DOOm uses a plant and a synthesizer as well as a device that uses a MIDI interface and reads the electrical pulses of the plants. The device translates the sound of the pulse (the sound of the plant) to the synthesizer, creating various atmospheric notes.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=SpunJcdhvGo<\/p>\n<p>Chiarenza adds: \u201cMusic is the Dionysiac representation of life. A complex cluster of tones and frequency which naturally engages with us in a synesthetic relationship. It has always been interesting for me how sound is perceived as aleatory and ethereal when compared to other artistic expressions such as painting which is a more visual type of representation. I think that having the ability to perceive every sound, even the ones that the ear finds less appealing, and analyzing the feel and character through a thoughtful process is not something that anybody could easily do. That&#8217;s why i love it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-28988 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-large'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/blog.westminster.ac.uk\/thevoiceoflondon\/celeb_filming\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.westminster.ac.uk\/thevoiceoflondon\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/64\/2018\/12\/Celeb_filming-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-29265\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.westminster.ac.uk\/thevoiceoflondon\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/64\/2018\/12\/Celeb_filming-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.westminster.ac.uk\/thevoiceoflondon\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/64\/2018\/12\/Celeb_filming-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.westminster.ac.uk\/thevoiceoflondon\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/64\/2018\/12\/Celeb_filming-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.westminster.ac.uk\/thevoiceoflondon\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/64\/2018\/12\/Celeb_filming-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.westminster.ac.uk\/thevoiceoflondon\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/64\/2018\/12\/Celeb_filming.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-29265'>\n\t\t\t\tBarbican Conservatory.
