ABSTRACT
The interactive artwork Dichroic Wade explores the hybrid and concrete form of data, light and space through a colorful display of dynamic reflected and transmitted light. This light is manipulated and treated in a painterly way, where the physical manipulation of light, shadow and colour facilitates audience engagement with the hybrid data and real space. The light changes in response to both people moving through the space and data streams describing the changing wind conditions in the San Francisco Bay. The bright colour reflections on the gallery walls, ceiling and floor facilitate audience engagement with this data. It is through this interpretation of behaviours in the data that the audience is able to make new meanings, working to relate themselves to both data and their surroundings in meaningful ways.
