Nils Völker (1979, Duitsland) brengt ons met zijn werk One Hundred and Eight - interactieve installatie (2010) -  intuitief op het spoor van de diepzee. One Hundred and Eight is een interactieve installatie bestaande uit alledaagse plasticzakken die sterk doen denken aan de bewegingen en gedragingen die we van zeeanemonen kennen.
Dankzij een microcontroller wordt elke zak om de beurt onafhankelijk van elkaar opgeblazen en leeggelaten door middel van twee ventilatoren. Hoewel iedere plastic zak stationair is gemonteerd geven de sequenties van inflatie en deflatie de indruk van levendige en bewegende wezens die langzaam rond zweven. Maar zodra de kijker dichtbij komt reageren de plasticzakken direct door naar achteren te trekken.
De installatie reageert op de dynamiek van de toeschouwer. Zodra er geen dynamiek meer te detecteren valt sluiten de plasticzakken en reorganiseren ze zichzelf.

One Hundred and Eight is an interactive wall-mounted Installation mainly made out of ordinary garbage bags. Controlled by a microcontroller each of them is selectively inflated and deflated in turn by two cooling fans. 
Although each plastic bag is mounted stationary the sequences of inflation and deflation create the impression of lively and moving creatures which waft slowly around like a shoal. But as soon a viewer comes close it instantly reacts by drawing back and tentatively following the movements of the observer. As long as he remains in a certain area in front of the installation it dynamically reacts to the viewers motion. As soon it does no longer detect someone close it reorganizes itself after a while and gently restarts wobbling around.
