"More to share about the immersive stargaze experience “Sky records"a collaboration between me, Hua and Yuchen Tien from Tufts University. It was premiered in Sensibilia as a sub-project that explored astronomical data revealed in algorithmic composition,sound and installation art.

We collected and analyzed Earth's observational data of meteor showers of 2022influencing the 7 chosen
parameters of a specially designed sonification model
leading to a collection of living sound sculptures built with multichannel audio system.

The audience is invited to experience a time-lapse
stargaze through a meditative environment connecting to the stars in a poetic and telepresent way. Along with the sound sculptures, a projection of particle clouds covers the room, allowing the audience to walk around listen, and watch the clusters of stars go by from all sides.

“Sky records" explores data-driven arts as an approach to preserve the contingencies present in our lives and invites contemplation on the transient nature of circumstances.

Would you strive to preserve a precious fleeting moment or rather let it go?"
