This artwork represents a world as observed under a microscope,
with wiggling "lives" reflecting the images of euglena and paramecia.

"AL-Volvox" flees from its predator "AL-Protozoa".
"AL-Protozoa" chases "AL-Volvox", eats it, and thereby continues to grow.

This work mainly focuses on the viewers experience and observations of virtual ecosystem.
The natural, lifelike shapes and movements of the characters may form a type of heeling art,
offering the viewers a sense of comfort - a comfort similar to the feeling of keeping and watching tropical fish.

How to change preferences:

Launch "Settings".
At the ends of the settings list you will find a section for "Volvox".
From there you can set the back color, gravity setting, and increase predators or not.
Quit Setting and return to AL Volvox.
