The Garden in the Machine is a groundbreaking total installation by renowned artist Jesper Just that explores the intricate relationship between natural and digitally produced environments. Set against the striking façade of Filmby Aarhus, this immersive work transforms the building into a canvas, projecting an interactive image sequence of a slowly rotating forest from sunset until midnight.At the heart of this installation is a solitary Scots Pine, equipped with sensors that continuously register its photosynthetic processes, dictating the film’s flow in real-time. Spanning an impressive 1,400 square meters and utilising 13.2 kilometres of LED strips, The Garden in the Machine stands as one of the largest video installations in the world.This book offers an in-depth exploration of Just’s artistic vision, technical ingenuity, and the profound questions his work raises about reality, perception, and the intertwining of the organic and the artificial.
