Aquaterrestrial Recolonization

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce the interactive installation Aquaterrestrial Recolonization as an artistic response to rising climate change concerns and trigger the audience's thoughts and discussions. In the project, we are recording and archiving the current state of the dead coral reefs and feeding artificial intelligence with that data to be able to visualize the virtual 3D dimensional recolonized coral reefs, relieved from human devastation and behaviour from the past and conduct changes in the future. We aim to preserve the current state of the Bahamian coral reefs and use artificial intelligence to return to the planet parts mankind has destroyed and affected the future with necessary human behavioural changes. Our AI Environmentalist is designed to be a chronologist, provocateur, and uncompromised planet Earth's protector.
