The Earth Biological Clock
a work in progress involving global warming, underwater ballet, and local action
realtime global climatology | a new creature | interaction | public art concept
Dr. Gouldstein's collection of new species
The public sculpture and its habitat fold creative technologies, environmental research, and performance-driven data into a city’s ecological narrative. The project integrates environmental science and urban living through personal relationship – distilling layered, multidisciplinary research as an ecological narrative of the planet's future, performed through related community activities and personal actions.
The ecological story takes the form of a interactive installation relying on data transmission and redefining new media as a fusion of experiment and experience. Scientific information takes physical form in the discovery of a new craeture, while a community's conservation efforts can set the global clock back. Through direct interaction and activities, the project connects communities with their local neighborhoods, and the planet.
