E-Volver is a site work from 2006 that was done as work for the Research Labs of LUMC in Leiden. They named their softwares ‘image breeding units’ which works by generating artificial pixels. They use 13 different genes that together make an agent act randomly and behave differently on screen. I like how this project is meant to generate and create images that look like they could be from inside a microscope, or even look like fungus forming while still being computed randomly. What I think is really cool about this installation is that touch can randomly affect the code. These images are displayed on screens and when tapped it will randomly deactivate some of the animations. The process will begin again and again regenerating and changing after a certain number of taps. I have not looked into code that can change based on user-experience and I think that this is a project that is not just important to the software developers of it, but to the people who went to experience the site.
