A new space where screens, seeds, indigenous languages, sensors and flowers coexist: This is the definition of the recently inaugurated Casa Tecnologías de la Naturaleza, a room that almost nobody knows about at 
Complejo Cultural Los Pinos.
Located in the Miguel de la Madrid Hall, it opened its doors to the public on May 3, and is an initiative of the Centro de Cultura Digital de la CDMX.
Children and adults will have fun here, because through interactive experiences and artistic installations, they will be able to reflect on the relationship between digital technologies and nature.
This new room seeks to articulate content on the milpa, fauna, flora and ancestral knowledge in dialogue with contemporary technologies.
What is in the House Technologies of Nature?
The tour begins with Mirada Suspendida, a small bird shelter outside the house. Inside, a camera captures the birds’ lives without invading their privacy. You will be able to see their usual behavior, and it is an invitation to stop for a while to observe how they live the rhythm of nature.
One of the most symbolic pieces in the space is Ceiba, a three-meter luminous sculpture inspired by the sacred tree of Mesoamerican cultures, which invites contemplation through ambient lights and sounds.
You can learn more about the bean seed germination process through a camera that takes pictures every three hours in Memoria Verde. Here the slow times of nature are contrasted with the immediacy of digitalized life.
Your tour through the new hall of Los Pinos ends with a Map of Languages, which gives visibility to the 368 variants of indigenous languages spoken in Mexico. You will also find three mobile applications where you can learn to speak Mixtec, Nahuatl and Purepecha.
More about this new space
During the year, the space will host parallel activities such as Bosque adentro, a series of immersive walks in the Chapultepec Forest to recognize species and sounds of the urban ecosystem, organized by the CCD in collaboration with the Fonoteca Nacional, Los Pinos and the Chapultepec Forest.
There will also be a series of workshops “We eat what we are, we are what we eat” that include face-to-face activations to learn indigenous languages, through the collective preparation of a dish from one of the country’s communities.
The Casa Tecnologías de la Naturaleza will be open from Tuesday to Sunday from 
10:00 to 18:00 hours and the 
entrance is 100% free. We remind you that it is located in the Miguel de la Madrid Hall at Complejo Cultural Los Pinos.
