Artometry Exploring the Intersection of Art, Science & Technology

Artist

Semiconductor (Ruth Jarman & Joe Gerhardt)

The website of a British artist duo. Working from scientific data gathered during stays at research facilities, and from astronomical tracking, they turn natural forces and scales of time into films and installations. Their choice to keep the noise and roughness of measured data is a useful reference for turning scientific data into moving images. The "Field research" section shows how the work grows out of time in labs.

Institution

4D2U Project, National Astronomical Observatory of Japan

The site of the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan's project for turning astronomical research into images. It offers Mitaka, free software for travelling from Earth out to the large-scale structure of the universe, along with simulation-based films and VR works — reference material for visualising celestial motion and orbits.

Artist

Ryoji Ikeda

The official site of a Japanese composer and artist who works with sound and data. It organises his large-scale audiovisual installations such as datamatics and supersymmetry, his concerts and his recordings by series. A leading example of making numbers and data themselves into the work.
