Spiral Jetty 2007
This is a real time visualisation of the city made from environmental data. The data is collected using my live wireless sensors network in real time. The sensots are laid out in a huge spiral creating a spiral of living. The images show the first spiral visualisation made in situ in 2007. This project was developed out of my AHRC research fellowship at Goldsmiths College in London (2006 2009) under the Title The Emergent City. How will environmental data and sensing systems be embedded in the city and inform our environment. Installation: Set up of wireless network in a sprial. Twenty motes and leave running and the data visualisation of the virtual spiral space come alive which is online and available for all to see. If you want to help make this across your city please contact me. For more info on my research into wireless sensors see Sensity. Progress has not followed a straight ascending line, but a spiral with rhythms of progress and retrogression, of evolution and dissolution. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe About the original spiral Jetty. Spiral Jetty surfaced several times between 1970 and 2002. Throughout the lake-level fluctuations Spiral Jetty survived wave erosion; the hard salt crust probably cemented the boulders together and provided a protective layer on the jetty surface. Contact. Stanza at sublime.net Thanks to an AHRC creative fellowship and Goldsmiths digital studios (where I am a Research Fellow), also special thanks to Janis Jefferies. |
