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.
