/ About this event

Step away from the noise of Tech Week and tune into nature.

Join PlantWave at 1 Hotel San Francisco for an immersive listening experience where living plants create music in real time.

Saturday, October 10 & Sunday, October 11 📍 Terrene Lounge, Ground Floor Morning Sessions: 10 AM – 2 PM Golden Hour Sessions: 4 PM – 7 PM

Created by artist and technologist Joe Patitucci, PlantWave translates subtle changes in plants' electrical activity into evolving musical compositions, offering an entirely new way to experience and connect with the natural world.

Slip on a pair of wireless headphones, settle into Terrene Lounge along San Francisco's iconic waterfront and hear the plants compose ever-evolving, ambient soundscapes.

Make yourself at home and stay awhile. Terrene Restaurant & Bar will be open throughout the listening sessions. Join us for brunch, lunch, or dinner and enjoy seasonal, farm-to-table cuisine featuring locally sourced ingredients, produce from the rooftop chef's garden, and thoughtfully crafted cocktails.

Whether you have ten minutes between meetings or an hour to unwind, come as you are, find a seat, and listen.

Complimentary listening experience. Food and beverages available for purchase.
