Jellyfish Mech

Mechanical Organisms.

In the distant future, the environment of the earth was harsh.

Highly developed AI created mecha adapted to its natural environment.

The mecha were designed with reference to living organisms.

We can learn a lot from organisms that have survived since ancient times.

The motif of this work is jellyfish.

Jellyfish are members of the plankton family, gelatinous organisms whose bodies are 95% water.

The word “plankton” conjures up images of much smaller creatures, but to be precise, jellyfish are aquatic animals that live according to the movement of water, so their body size is irrelevant.

In Chinese characters, jellyfish are written as “water moons,” because their floating life resembles a moon floating on water.

Jellyfish do not have a brain or heart, but they have nerves throughout their bodies.

It is believed that they recognize their prey as food the moment they touch their tentacles and prey on it.

In addition, they move as if they are programmed to automatically respond to various external stimuli such as water temperature and water pressure.

We hope that through this work, you will become interested in jellyfish.
