Laraaji collaborates with plants in a church and offers one of the most curious performances of SXSW Music. edwardlgordon
“I walked in the peace garden … light was everywhere,” proclaimed the man in orange, eyes closed, living in infinity.
No doubt the most peculiar showcase on the schedule for South by Southwest’s Music portion, Saturday’s proceedings were presented by PlantWave – a $300 device that measures a plant’s electrical variations and represents that data in a variety of notes and textures. Hand chimes dinged, a stanza from the luminescent gardens of their minds was recited, and Laraaji’s amplified zither was tickled with brushes, then stroked with a bow – all to a drone and pulse triggered, apparently, by chloroplasts moving throughout leaves. As the Brian Eno-approved instrumentalist cycled through intentional poses where he appeared to be holding an invisible ball of energy, the sound of trickling liquid conjured thoughts of wet roots sucking up water like straws.
