Descriptions & Essays
In Weather Gauge, numerical weather data from over 150 countries is simultaneously represented in a gallery forming an array of hypnotic animated data referencing a huge global spread of live information. Each piece of weather data rotates between centigrade, Fahrenheit, local-time and city of origin, so when presented in a large array, the whole field of information rhythmically evolves, offering viewers an unusual extended sense of context beyond the physical location of the work.
