Gardening once was the one of art form nurtured by Zen principles. It emphasized the intentional blurring of the distinctions between natural and man-made materials. The idea is adopted into an installation project "GORI.Node Garden" in order to explore an author's alternative view of network and an idea of "Node Gardening". GORI.Node Garden has been developed as a series of network data visualization. While the earlier version of GORI.Node Garden was about nurturing a private network garden by using mobile communication data, "Gardening Two" is an open network garden where anyone on the Internet is able to participate in growing GORIs by instant messaging. This paper is a description of the second one.
