Aerial
Aerial is a web based digital animation/sonic work, which was commissioned by inIVA (International Institute of Visual Arts) as part of their x-space programme.
Aerial utilises an arbitrary meteorological scale of reference. Visuals based on the ten cloud formation classifications are linked to sounds filtered in response to changing levels of atmospheric pressure. Most voice power is contained in lower frequency sounds, yet information content exists mainly in the higher frequencies. The compression and distortion of speech - an airborne communication method - is reflected by variations in the air itself. The viewer’s experience becomes subject (like the weather) to change.
