What if digital memory was dependent of a plant's life? An imaginary community entrusts their most valuable digital data to Micromeria Acropolitana – a small plant that grows exclusively on the Acropolis hill. The community doesn't reveal the plants' location on the hill and use polyphonic songs to attend them. As the locus of storage shifts from the ethereal realm of the computational Cloud to the tangible Earth, and as control transitions from corporations to individual users, the life cycle of data mirrors that of a plant, nurturing a symbiotic relationship of interdependence and care. Within this unconventional garden, users assume the role of caretakers for the plants, while the plants reciprocate by safeguarding the stored information.
