Touching Resonance grows out of Minnie Park's audio-visual practice, which centres touch, affect, and audience participation as core artistic materials. In this workshop, Minnie extends that practice into a shared, hands-on experience. Using conductive touch technology, plants and flowers become tactile interfaces that trigger sound and visuals in real time.
Bring a small plant, or use flowers provided on the day. Once connected to the system, your plant responds to touch, activating sound and visual responses that you select and shape. The workshop culminates in a live collective performance, composed and recorded together by all participants.
The workshop uses a midicontroller, Playtronica, alligator clips, speakers, and a screen or projector with a prepared audio-visual system.
Each participant’s plant or flower will be connected via alligator clips. Touch will trigger or modulate sound and visuals. Participants may interact individually or collectively. Group touch, such as holding hands to complete a circuit, may be included as an optional mode of interaction.
Duration: 60–90 minutes.
No prior technical experience required. All are welcome.

Minnie Jimin Park
Minnie Park is an artist based in Seoul and Melbourne, working across 3D art, augmented reality, music, and painting. Her practice is anchored in a curiosity about human emotion - how feeling manifests, how colour carries affective weight, and how the two shape our inner and relational worlds.
Through immersive and interactive audio-visual experiences, Minnie creates work that invites audiences inward, offering space to explore emotion, identity, and the quieter textures of self-knowledge. Her projects move fluidly between the digital and the sensory, often placing the audience at the centre of the experience as active participants.
