Rebecca Allen dates The Bush Soul (#3) to 1999 and describes an interactive installation in which programmed artificial-life behaviour creates a complex environment. A force-feedback joystick combines navigation with touch. The account provides historical background for research into its 2023 Worldbuilding presentation.
Material description
Read the work’s mechanism and credits in web lines 32–66, and the exhibition list in lines 69–89. This record was collected as background for the Worldbuilding candidate, without adding a 1999 event to the 2022–2026 chronology. The artist’s page does not list the 2023 Metz presentation and cannot independently establish that version. The account of West African belief is attributed to the artist and has not received ethnographic verification. The exhibition list contains the year 2108; it is not used as a historical date. The site’s ©2026 notice is not a publication date. No images were copied during that research reading.
