-What would a city sound like through plant ears? What would a city sound like if humans could hear what plants 'hear': changes in light, moisture, wind, tactile sensations, chemical signals, sound… Alternatively: what humanly audible sounds should we amplify/subdue to experience the plants' sensory spectrum? Can we make music that can be enjoyed by both people and plants? +What would a city sound like through plant ears?
