This gives me an inexplainable vibe, magical, mysterious, mystical and it feels like it’s totally from another dimension, like we’re not supposed to hear it. It makes me feel like im isolated in a forest with no humans but only me and the souls of the flowers and trees and insects, surrounded by golden butterflies that glimmer in the dark reflecting the waters with the shooting stars, honestly, I don’t mind staying in that place my mind created forever.
George Washington Carver rose at 4 am every day to walk in his GA woods. He created >500 shades of dyes from plants working round the clock for something like a week during WWI when it had become scarce. Book 'Secret Life of Plants' Thompkins & Bird gives a whole chapter to him. It was said he communed with faeries.
I’m Wiccan and I use these sounds during rituals and spells because they are directly connected to nature and the power I feel from these sounds is so immense.
Hiiiii just wanted to say thankyou for such a great idea. Next time I use plants in spells and rituals I'm gonna use the plant music sounds made from their frequency! Tyyy for sucha game changing smart idea. I love creativity within magic it's what makes it a art form. This is so beautiful for an idea
I a going to play this to my lavender plants and see how they grow. I will make medicine and tea out of those flowers and play the music while making the medicine. I believe that we are receiving knowledge from the plants on a physical level not jus the intuitive. This is adding a new dimension to healing . My culture teaches to always ask the plant permission. I have not had a plant say no when I use My Bamboo M. So far the birds listen to the music and sing along. The horses just stand by the fence while the music is playing and listen. It is truly amazing. The Lavender music is more laid back than Parsley. Lavender puts my husband to sleep. I start my day with Parsley. Thank you Shane waiting for an album.
Dear Susan, Thank you for sharing your experiences and creating your medicine with the music.I’m honoured! I definitely believe in the idea and concept of reciprocity, I too will check in with the plant before I venture to collaborate with it. It’s most important to extend compassion and care to all forms,living and non living.After all, I see the magnitude of creation is embodied in all forms, connected through the music and rhythm from waves and particles. :) More music coming soon!
This is one of the most beautiful and haunting tracks I’ve ever heard. I TRULY love and adore it. It is VERY well done! It is extremely unique not only in sound but it’s creation as well! I easily imagine an animation of a girl wandering through an abandoned down, or factory or mine….finding news papers of old town tragedies and mysteries, bones, ripped up clothes, barricaded houses and bent weapons even as she searches more. For the pretty piano parts…there are glistening spider webs, pools of dripping water, sun streaming down through cracks and holes in the ceiling and even reflecting off crystals in mines, or off metal as well.
Thank you so much for your kind words dear HereticSonGoku! I love your beautiful visual interpretation. I was instantly transported to this place. Thank you for sharing that.❤️🌱
Thank you for making this video. I have been struggling with really bad thoughts and I haven't been able to listen to the music I used to jam. This is something I can listen to that gives me peace and I believe it's nourishing because it's natural. Thank you very much.
Amazing sounding just so good. Nice to hear the Moogs getting in on the act. I have looked at the Scion before but now I can see what it does, you may well of sold me on it. Nice work.
As someone who knows nothing about modular synthesis and after reading the video description like 20 times, I had to wonder if I was being trolled, lol, until I actually went to your channel. Wtffff I've always wondered, like, "what could possibly be the next musical innovation", fearing music's possibilities have reached the summit. I was wrong though, this is it. I'm... so blown away right now by you, lol
Nice music.🙂 I feel that the 432hz pitch is in harmony with this music. I have that tuning fork but not the 440hz one. I would like someone who has both tuning forks to try them.
I understand to some extend how it works And I assume the sounds are chosen by presets on the synthesizer? But I'm still astounded the plant interacts with it at all
Ok but why did I fall asleep in the first 5 mins lol.. I woke up and was like yooo I’m not done so I replay it again.. guesss what... I fell asleep before it was over... again haha
Thank you dear @ClayRunions! For tuning in and showing your support! It means a lot and helps me keep making more videos and music for you and everyone! 🌱❤️
Beautiful Shane (and plant orchestra)! I wonder, it looks like there are plants observing/listening while lavender plays, we do know that plants are always in communication chemically (airborne) if not by roots; so does the herb garden listen to each others’ compositions, and can the lavender hear itself while playing ? Lovely that you’ve made an album, I’ll look for it. Just got my scion yesterday :)
Thank you so much Aya! There is not enough data to confirm that yet , but i'd like to think that they do react to their environments and get informed by the bioelectric fields of other plants so therefore to the music that they create. Enjoy your Scion! Cheers.
Im really curious as to how a cumin plant would sound. As the powder is known for its unique taste palette. Nice stuff, really inspiring :) Glad to have stumbled upon your channel!
Hi Muppets! The Biofeedback sensor is picking up fluctuations in the bio electricity of the plant. These fluctuations are then converted to control voltage that is used to modulate and create musical variation, pitch and rhythms that are applied creatively to generate music.
great rack, very good combination of modules! i'm also aiming for arbhar+morphagene combo but it will probably still take quite a lot of time to get them both :)
Hey Shane really dig the tune, just wondering if you use the new plant music unit to pass to your modular rig? I was wanting to get started with this is there an easy way to get going? just wanting to bring some plant tunes into my daw to add to my music. Thanks!
Thanks for tuning in Mike. I use the instruo Scion, haven’t tried the other Eurorack ones yet but tempted too. If you have a cv to midi conversion device or one that outputs midi that should be a good place to start. Cheers
i wonder what would happen if the lavendar was isolated from it's own music. Would there be less change? can the plant somehow respond to the physical vibrations and choose what it likes to feel? it would be interesting to record repeat performaces with and without sound isolation
Hi Maureen! The plant is triggering different aspects of the synths to create the evolving music some of which are pre added sound sources loaded into a sampler or sometimes a simple synth oscillator . This is done by extracting musical data from the bio electrical patterns emitted from the plants via a biofeedback sensor. This data is used to generate pitch, rhythm and modulation that is assigned to the system to allow the plant to perform and modulate the sources that helps create the music. Cheers.
Hey love your work!! Im also experimenting with plants and water, but had difficulties finding biofeedback sensors, can you give me some tips where can I find? Thanks and awesome work!
Curious about the sensor. I'm a synth builder and player and i did experiments in biofeedback decades ago. Is it galvanic skin response? oh, i see, it's the instruo scion. Just searching scion wasn't much help.
That's how I imagined lavender would sound.
😊 Thanks for tuning in!
me too, i intuitively knew that music from the beginning on
Yes this lavender music taste soo good 🥰

Every time I watch / listen to one of these I feel like I just all of a sudden fell far into the future as seen by David Attenborough.
Thank you so much for your kind words Joshua! I love David Attenborough. Bless his soul.
Wonderful sound, thx! Which "biofeedback sensor" are you using?
Hey, i'd be interested to get to know more about the set up as well. Any insight ? Thanks for sharing beauty !
Hadih🌱 there...
Sne kalyegh 🤲
Now entering lavender town
5 minutes into this masterpiece. There is great calmness. Warmth rises up in my hands and feet. God bless!
This is beautiful. It's a very bright and uplifting sound, just like the smell.
Thank you Pinklogic!
Relaxing music wind chimes ❤ no wonder lavender calms down beautiful ❤❤❤
Amazing sounding just so good. Nice to hear the Moogs getting in on the act. I have looked at the Scion before but now I can see what it does, you may well of sold me on it. Nice work.
Thank you so much Popes! Come take a walk on the wild side ;) Cheers!
Beautiful, unlike anything I heard before. God bless!
quem diria que uma planta tão maravilhosa faria impulsos que rendem um som lindo assim! palmas pra lavanda!!!!! palmas para Shane!
a-mazing! crazy to think that it's available for free!
To me this sounds hauntingly beautiful
Congratulations for this wonderful video and explanations 💕💯
Thank you for your kind words @ kentinjvek
Best channel for coding while you high
Thanks for the compliment :) 🤙
Thank you for facilitating this with such elegance and grace, Shane.
This just showed up in my recommended thank god I’ve been looking for stuff exactly like this without luck
I listen to mycolyco religiously
You should see what happens when you bring quarts crystal near the plant while it's hooked up. I think you will be pleasently surprised.
Idk what has lavender that smells calm, looks calm, makes you calm if you consume it and even SOUNDS calm
I love lavenda words escape me at such beauty xxxx
Thanks for tuning in Mollie!
Interesting and, beautiful to listens too thanks lavender.
Thank you so much for tuning in Joe! 🌱
This is absolutely incredible 😢
that's exactly how I'd expect lavender to sound.
Lavender. Soothing.
I'm blessed to hear this 💙💙💙 thanks to the lavender flower that granted me the permission to hear it's divinely sounds 💜💜💜 thank you Universe 🤍🤍🤍
This is really intricate! Wonderful find , very pleased. 💖
Thank you for you kind words Jamie !😊💚
Wow sounds great😁
Thank you 😊
amazing love this
What a cool machine! The future is fantastic sometimes, ain't it?
Sounds like lavander
Amazing!
Thank you so much Arif!
Just discovered the Scion..wow love it

Thanks! and Cheers 😊
Same, just got mine ! Inspired by this channel and your co-creations with plants, Shane!
Can't wait to see the live gig with pink oyster mushroom

great video! very nice to have an explaination of what each module does
Thank you Grey! 😊
The vibrating hum is amazing
Already I'm starting to notice a pattern which means it's not just random signals, there's something going on with the plant.
This astounds me, and I've seen a lot!
Cheers!
This is so cool!!!
Thank you so much!!! Please do a video of chamomile and bergamot too! And a sunflower 🌻
Thanks for tuning in Petrie! Will add those to my list. 😊
@@shanemendonsa that makes me so happy! Thank you 💜
Love it! I listen to music on Spotify so please try release your plant music on there!
Hi! Which biofeedback sensor are you using? Thanks for sharing!
Hi Shane, what a wonderfull project. What kind of electrode did you use for your project ? Did you employ a gel ? thanks for sharing
Thank you so much! I just used the standard electrode pads that come with it, easy to find them online, haven’t needed to use a gel with the pads.
How about REALLY understanding what plants communicate through electrical impulses? See here: ruclips.net/video/ec25KfmiqUU/видео.html
Pure magic ❤️
Thank you Karolina!
I understand to some extend how it works
And I assume the sounds are chosen by presets on the synthesizer? But I'm still astounded the plant interacts with it at all

far freaking out
Super cool sounds and lovely camera work! Subbed.
Thank you Human Motives! :)
Thanks! Why is it called “lavender ?”
Thank you much dear Daniel! 🌿
how would i even begin to build one of these
this almost feels haunting
Ok but why did I fall asleep in the first 5 mins lol.. I woke up and was like yooo I’m not done so I replay it again.. guesss what... I fell asleep before it was over... again haha
Haha! Lavender likes to do that ;) Thanks for tuning in Alyssa 😊
I went to Bandcamp and bought all of his recordings

Nice :)
Cheers!
So how did the Lavender plant choose which modules to use?
this music gives so much minecraft vibes
it could even be a song thats exclusive to the lush caves or smth
Can i ask more about the science of this? What is the equipment picking up?
Hi Muppets! The Biofeedback sensor is picking up fluctuations in the bio electricity of the plant. These fluctuations are then converted to control voltage that is used to modulate and create musical variation, pitch and rhythms that are applied creatively to generate music.
Is like SOMA radio.
Omg i see a snake plant..🌞
great rack, very good combination of modules! i'm also aiming for arbhar+morphagene combo but it will probably still take quite a lot of time to get them both :)
Cheers! They are worth the wait! :)

So if plants react to music, and the lavender is reacting to the music it's creating, is this a form of self-expression for the plant?
🤔
What would a cactus produce... I want to know now haha
Dude what kind of synth is that!? I need this for my jam band!
Hey Eli! It’s a modular synth with a biofeedback module for plant music 😊
❤️...
Song to use when in a lavender forest in a video game
Is the signal the the biofeedback being fed into a quantizer?
Hi MrHihowryou! Thanks for tuning in.
Yes ! there are 4 quantizer modes built into the module.
i wonder what would happen if the lavendar was isolated from it's own music. Would there be less change? can the plant somehow respond to the physical vibrations and choose what it likes to feel? it would be interesting to record repeat performaces with and without sound isolation
Is most of what we hear the actual plants or are there added sounds?
Hi Maureen! The plant is triggering different aspects of the synths to create the evolving music some of which are pre added sound sources loaded into a sampler or sometimes a simple synth oscillator . This is done by extracting musical data from the bio electrical patterns emitted from the plants via a biofeedback sensor.

is this available on Spotify?
Hi Sylven, it’s on Bandcamp! 🌿
Awesome, I like it at 0.5x speed
Highly addictive. Wonderful stuff! Are the Arbhar and the Morphagene complementary?
Thanks Bernard! Yes! they seem to pair well together with slight overlaps :)
😮
Hey love your work!! Im also experimenting with plants and water, but had difficulties finding biofeedback sensors, can you give me some tips where can I find? Thanks and awesome work!
Thanks Morel! There is only the Scion for Eurorack that I know off but I’m sure you might discover other types on the net. Cheers!

Anybody know if this module uses GSR? I sent them a request, crickets so far.
Hi Cristol, Yes it’s based on the same or similar technology I believe.
@@shanemendonsa Awesome, thanks.
