MIMODEK is a dynamic, interactive, and evolving artificial living system which is based on the principles of the natural world yet “grows” from the fabric of the city.

As all living systems in nature, MIMODEK reflects its own environment. It is site specific, formed by unique, location-related data sources, and by behavior of the visitors. Every installation evolves into a unique “organism” reflecting its location.

MIMODEK highlights the delicate relation between human beings and their environment, and their connection to other living beings with whom they share this environment.

Follow MIMODEK evolution during the day at Medialab-Prado space.

MIMODEK was first developed during the Open Up workshop (February 2010) with the collaborators Steven Pickles (Pix), Lali Barriere, Maja Kalogera, Abinadi Meza, Liisa Tervinen y Bruno Vianna.

Last version created by Jonathan Cremieux and Marie Polakova.


Project developed with the support of the Ayudas a la Creación Contemporánea Matadero Madrid 2010.
