NOWSPACE with Michelle Leftheris

Join midd.data for a Lightning Talk with Michelle Leftheris (Studio Art). NOWSPACE is an online, live-streaming observatory which collects video from cameras pointed at the sky across North America. In this immersive, web-based artwork, multiple streams are collaged into singular compositions of a synthesized view of the nation’s skies. Engaging with issues of accessibility and the history of land art, this project suggests a renewed way to use existing technology to augment our understanding of the physical world through direct, perceptual encounters regardless of the viewer’s location. NOWSPACE provides a comparative survey of our world in real-time as a cohesive, composed, and ever-changing image.
