Can we inherit memories? explores the possible genetic memory through human RNA data. The hypothesis that RNA transmits ancestral memories to the next generation is being studied by Prof. Rechavi. Based on this idea, Dataworm 3D models were converted from human RNA data using computer programming. These digital Dataworms acquire physical properties through 3D printing and integration of LED components. The Dataworm's light turns on and off by interacting with the visitor’s hand gestures. Our gestures trigger these genetic memories and wake them up. An experimental harmony between a 3D video and an interactive object lets viewers immerse themselves in their own inherited memories.
