Ibyerekeye Cryptographic Beings Igishushanyo cy'Ubuhanzi

Cryptographic Beings ni igishushanyo cy'ubuhanzi kibika amakuru ya dijitali mu byatsi byo mu mazi bizima (algae). Iki gikorwa kigizwe na bits mirongo itatu z'ibimera, buri kimwe ni icyombo cy'ikirahure kirimo algae ziboshye nk'imigozi. Fotosentezi itanga uduce tw'umwuka (gas vesicles), bityo algae zikareremba mu rumuri kandi zikarohama mu mwijima. Buri mimerere yo kureremba cyangwa kurohama igereranya zeru cyangwa rimwe ya dijitali, kandi iki gishushanyo gishobora kubika ijambo ry'inyuguti eshanu. Amaboko ya robo akoreshwa na moteri agenzura urumuri rugera kuri buri cyombo, naho sensor y'amabara yakozwe ku buryo bwihariye isoma buri mimerere. Iyi mashini ikora yonyine mu gihe cy'amezi menshi mu gihe cy'imurikagurisha.

Ishimwe

Ibyerekeye Igihembo cya A' Design Award cya Ifeza

Cryptographic Beings Igishushanyo cy'Ubuhanzi ni uwegukanye Igihembo cya A' Design Award cya Ifeza, ishimwe ridasanzwe ry'agaciro gakomeye ritangwa ku bishushanyo byo ku rwego rwo hejuru, byiza kandi bikora ku mutima. Abegukanye Ifeza ni ibihangano by'ubuhanga bukomeye kandi bifite guhanga kwinshi, bigaragaza ubuhanga bwimbitse, impano n'ubushishozi bw'ababihanze. Cryptographic Beings Igishushanyo cy'Ubuhanzi biteganyijwe ko izaba igihangano cy'icyitegererezo, gifite ubunyamwuga bukomeye n'udushya twimbitse. Iki gishushanyo cyegukanye Ifeza ni igihangano kizwi kandi gishimwa, gifasha kugura imbibi z'ubuhanzi, ubumenyi, ubushushanyo n'ikoranabuhanga. Cryptographic Beings Igishushanyo cy'Ubuhanzi ni igihangano benshi bifuza, gikangura ibyifuzo, gitanga amarangamutima meza kandi gitera igitangaza.

Ibintu Bidasanzwe
Cryptographic Beings is a technological proposal that leverages our ability to control and abstract biology to perform digital information storage.

Marimos are large spherical colonies of algea.

Photosynthetic activity produces gas vesicles visible to the naked eye
This property allows them to float when exposed to light and sink in the dark

This property is used to store digital data: The floating or sinking state representing digital 0s or 1s
This robotic setup is capable of storing a 5 letter word

Ikoranabuhanga ryo Guteza Imbere
This work was developed as part of an ongoing research project on bio-hybrid computation exploring the possible morpho-space of computing devices. Michael Sedbon questions the information-processing properties of living matter through the creation of novel technologies embed into sculptural artefacts.
This work has been developed as a functional prototype of a digital data storage device on vegetal media. It uses living algae, custom electronic and software code to store information.
Ikibazo cy'Ishusho
Cryptographic being is both a technological and an artistic proposal. The technology used to store digital information in vegetal media is a pure creation for this work. During its development, numerous technical challenges such as the design of custom sensors and engineered mechanical parts had to be overcome.
As an artistic project, it also had to communicate its (highly technical) subject in an understandable manner. Great care was placed in rendering biological processes visible.
Ubushakashatsi
Living organisms perceive and interact with their environment through computation. Recent advances in the life sciences allow researchers and designers to envision machines of new kinds that leverage the massive and specific capacities of living matter in computing.
How would these bio-hybrid machines change our perception of nature and culture, what can be used to compute, what can be computed and what form will they take? These are the question this work approach.
Ibyatumye Habaho
The first part of the 20th century witnessed simultaneously the discovery of the basis of information storage in DNA and the revolutions of the modern computing era.

Since then, the fields of computer science and modern biology have co-evolved in a conceptual framework that looks at life as an information processing system and at digital computations as Intelligence.

This cultural relationship is allowing us to design new kinds of bio-hybrid computers leveraging the massive capacity of life.
Igihe cy'Umushinga
The project was conceptualised and prototyped in summer 2021. The production occurred from September 2021 to March 2022. This work was shown at Au Dela Des Pixel, a digital art exhibition curated and organised by 36 Degres, in March 2022 in Paris.
Uburyo bw'Imikorere
This autonomous machine consists of an array of 30 vegetal bits made of filamentous algae held in glass vessels. The control of the information flow is handled by a set of specifically developed robotic arms that control photosynthetic processes in each of the bits. The state of each bit (the digital information) is retrieved by a custom-made device based on a colour sensor.
The machine is designed to run autonomously for months throughout an exhibition.
