From the maker:

"The flowers don’t create sound in the way we hear it — instead, bioelectrical impulses from their cells are captured by sensors and translated into musical notes through modular synths. What you hear is the living energy of the plant expressed as music. When two flowers are connected, their signals interact and weave together, creating harmonies — like nature’s own conversation in sound....

The plants don’t generate sound directly — their bioelectrical impulses are captured by sensors and converted into control voltages. I mainly use the Intruo Scion (a biofeedback module) together with a Moog Mother-32, shaping the signals with reverbs and delays. This way, the living rhythms of the plants are translated into evolving musical patterns."
