A Landscape of Events presents a kinetic data visualization that employs (near) real-time data from natural phenomena, in particular, ocean wind from the west coastline of US. (Data from NOAA's Buoy Center)
The project presents real-time natural productive movements based on ocean wind data that is updated every 10 minutes. Performatory movements of wind data create traces of corrosion as time passes.
The wind exists neither in heaven nor on earth, neither in west nor east, and neither in presence nor history. It exists as invisible space between everything, in the middle, amid considerations as a potential territory. This project utilizes data, physical objects, and space to visualize natural phenomena as a physical form. It experiments in creating a subjective scene that allows a full range of possibilities from data, material, form, and scale.
