Video insights

@plantwave's TikTok video "Hopbush music 🌿 On the caldera of Kīlauea, we recorded the bioelectric signals of an ʻaʻaliʻi, the shrub some people call hopbush. It is growing on volcanic rock, in a place where the ground is still being made. Lava cools, cracks, catches a little water, and a plant like this one moves in. Given enough time the rock becomes soil and the soil becomes forest. That is the part we keep coming back to, because the same thing happened to us. Every atom in your body was made somewhere else and arrived here by way of rock and water and other living things. There is no line where the Earth stops and you start. We built PlantWave to make that easier to remember. It does not add anything to the plant. It reads what is already moving inside it and turns that into something you can hear. We gave this one a sound with no edges, shimmering and weightless, the kind that seems to be coming from everywhere at once. The harmony was already there. We just turned it up. #hopbush #aalii #hawaii #plantmusic #naturesounds" has 6,915 views, 378 likes, 34 comments, 25 shares in the public metrics captured by this index.
