At Future Days 2025 in Lisbon, Portuguese computational designer le_Brimet unveiled Data Trees Metamorphosis, an innovative AI art installation that merges the digital realm with physical interaction. This piece includes two portals: one featuring a digital display of AI-generated plant life inspired by species from the Estufa Fria greenhouse, and another showcasing a regenerative cork surface created in collaboration with Gencork, complemented by a soundscape from Marcus Amadeus. The AI envisions potential transformations or extinctions of plants due to climate change over the coming decades. Le_Brimet, the creator of ArtCreTech, has received accolades including two Red Dot Design Awards and three German Design Awards. In 2024, FRAME magazine recognized him as one of the 'Ones to Watch.'
