| Research Abstract |
Following is an out line of new knowledge attained in the process of making prototypes for the "Space Garden",
1.Our prototype "Space Garden", even in its small scale, confirmed that it can maintain the viewer's attention by the changes in line of sight as the object moves around and also give an impression of a different scale when it is observed in the clinostat. This suggests that the large-scale experience of exploring a garden could be duplicated by viewers manipulating their bodies around the periphery of a garden in the ISS, even if this were a small scale.
2.Visiting the IBMP(Institute for Biological Medical Problems) in Moscow, gave us a good chance to review our project as unique. Most of the experiments around plants in space are biological or agricultural in nature, but none of their approaches are similar to us, as artists who are researching the relationship between human culture and nature by gardening in the μ-gravity condition. However, IBMP gave us the information that both Russian Hydroponics by using Rockwool and our Peat-moss based nutrient medium for plants may cause an environmental pollution problem for the ISS.
3.With the experiments and the new information above, we have found we need to develop another plantation system which doesn't pollute the closed environment by enclosing the nutrient section and using spraying farming technology. Inter-connected bottles formed the Space Garden prototype based on the above idea were brought on to a parabolic flight and it was observed that the movement between the bottles would be an additional important element in translating this to a large-scale experience.
