GORI is an electronic plant that is connected to the Internet and nourished by network data as they vibrate, blink or grow.
The plant has a long, thin acrylic stem and a round, flat metal blossom on top of it. Its root has a mechanical structure with a small circuit board that controls the GORI behavior. GORI has been developed as a series of art installations since 2004.
The term 'GORI' generally means 'to link' and 'open hook' in Korean and it is often used to refer to the 'fastening' and 'loosening' of human relationships.
