Robotic Plants Making Music - Bionic and the Wires Live at IPBES in Manchester.

Bionic and the Wires opened the IPBES Manchester plenary session at Manchester Central in February 2026. The event was attended by representatives from 150 countries. It was a huge honour to be performing at Manchester Central representing our home city of Manchester in one of its most iconic venues. By translating biological activity into music, the piece aligned directly with the event’s mission to rethink humanity’s relationship with nature.
