Interstellar: Cross-Scale Space-Scapes

Conceived as a peaceful and playful exploration of the interstellar space, this augmented reality and sound installation invites the audience to access the experiential dimension of space technologies and how the huge amount of data derived from space exploration can be accessed, appropriated, integrated into the artist’s poetics and experienced by the audience.
The audience is invited to download the application and scan the Augmented Reality markers find him/herself immersed in a soundscape populated with 3D models derived from actual micro scale images of stardust particles.
The 3D models were generated via parametric design strategies from NASA Stardust Discovery-class mission's database images of aerogel samples, which have captured cosmic dust particles. The mission was the first to return samples from a comet and from interstellar space.
The installation is a tribute to Hélio Oiticica’s radical series of red and yellow ‘Spatial Reliefs’ (1960).
