The pleasure of sound: Joe Patitucci

For Joe Patitucci, the idea of PlantWave – a device that translates plant data into music – was a way of connecting even more deeply to the feeling of being in nature. Despite its humble origins as a re-purposed lie detector, it has since become a unique tool for composers and wellness practitioners alike. In this audio experience, we encourage you to listen to what plants have to say, as we hear Joe’s story and his composition using PlantWave on four different plants.

If you want to feel hopeful about the future, just ask children what kind of world they would like to see. Their imagination knows no bounds, and their playful curiosity can be a refreshing change from the doom and gloom often foreseen by adults.  

For our SUPERFUTURES: What if…? podcast we will be tapping into that sense of wonder, exploring what it’s like to dream bigger and bolder for what lies ahead. Hosted by Natty Kasambala, we’ll be speaking with people who are tackling some of our greatest challenges in ways only children could have imagined, to make the world a better place for everyone.
