Data Garden is an arts organization and independent record label formed by Joe Patitucci and Alex Tyson in 2011.[1]
Label activity
In conjunction with releasing music downloads on plantable artwork,[2] Data Garden has produced installations and events at The Philadelphia Museum of Art,[3] The Noguchi Museum, Institute of Contemporary Art Philadelphia, SXSW Festival, and Bartram’s Garden in Philadelphia, among others. Data Garden has received grants from The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage[4] and The Andy Warhol Foundation for The Visual Arts.[5]
In 2014, Data Garden launched the MIDI Sprout, a bio-sonification device. The converter enables musicians to use plants and other living matter as MIDI triggers for electronic music and research.[6] The product was developed with engineer Sam Cusumano and was inspired by the work of Richard Lowenberg,[7] Cleve Backster and Mileece.[8][9]
