tele-present wind

This installation consists of a series of 126 x/y tilting mechanical
devices connected to thin dried plant stalks installed in a gallery
and a dried plant stalk connected to an accelerometer installed
outdoors. When the wind blows it causes the stalk outside to sway.
The accelerometer detects this movement transmitting the motion to
the grouping of devices in the gallery. Therefore the stalks in the
gallery space move in real-time and in unison based on the movement
of the wind outside.

May-September 2018 a newly expanded version of tele-present wind was
installed at Azkuna Zentroa, Bilbao and the sensor was installed in
an outdoor location adjacent to the Visualization and Digital Imaging
Lab at the University of Minnesota. Thus the individual components of
the installation in Spain moved in unison as they mimicked the
direction and intensity of the wind halfway around the world. As it
monitored and collected real-time data from this remote and distant
location, the system relayed a physical representation of the dynamic
and fluid environmental conditions.

Laboratoria Art & Science Space, Moscow - 2010

In June and July of 2010 this tele-present wind was installed at
Laboratoria Art & Science Space in Moscow and the sensor was
installed in an outdoor location adjacent to the Visualization and
Digital Imaging Lab at the University of Minnesota.
