Figure 33. Q.S. Serafijn / NOX, D- Tower, Netherlands, 2003 *A coherent hybrid of different media where architecture is part of a larger interactive system of relationships. Visualization without screens Data is invisible and there are many visualization methods that can make it visible. As a result, collected data from our real world is transformed to the virtual world. Data becomes trapped in the virtual world. People can only interact with it through a computer. Given the importance of data in our ordinary lives, the ways in which we visualize data is too limited. Why not try to bring out the data in the real world again, representing it in pure space through real movement in the form of nature Such represnetations begin to perform a natural behavior and/or natural production. ‘D-tower’ conceived by artist Q.S. Serafijn and architect Lars Spuybroek/NOX-Architekten in Netherlands is one good example that shows not only data generated by the public (e.g., people’s everyday emotions) but also consequently changes in color state of the sculpture everyday. Kinetic Information Sculpture Interestingly, at the end of his PhD dissertation, Ben Fry mentions a different form of information visualization called kinetic information sculpture. “A step further would look at how to make the visualization of data more like a kind of ‘kinetic information sculpture’.” 50 In his book, Virilio also states that sculpture and new land art are important esthetic subjects in this media-oriented society. Also, in his master’s thesis, Casey Reas proposed behavioral kinetic sculpture as a new method of interaction in this digital world: [A]s the decade’s progress, we will find ourselves interacting with machines more and more frequently, but what will be the qualities of these interactions Through integrating information processing technologies into kinetic sculpture we are able to explore new methods and properties of interaction…. 51 To avoid using privileged visual methods such as media screens and/or ink on paper and to provide a more reliable representation of nature, in my project, I tried to use a new method to visualize data–a physical system Figure 34.
