ART GALLERY: DATA MATERIALITIES<br />
12<br />
FP F S EP E #SIGGR<strong>AP</strong>H2016<br />
The SIGGRAH 2016 Art Gallery exposes a plethora of data and transforms it to<br />
incarnations of tangibility that not only showcase their complexity, but also allow us<br />
to relate to them on a human scale. By injecting humor and kinetic energy to their<br />
exposition, the gallery makes light of these data platforms and presents them on a<br />
grand scale to reveal their ubiquity.<br />
A special issue of Leonardo, The Journal of the International Society of the Arts, Sciences and Technology includes visual<br />
documentation of the works exhibited in the Art Gallery. Publication of this eighth special issue coincides with SIGGR<strong>AP</strong>H 2016.<br />

Doors<br />
Doors is a portal that takes on the middle<br />
ground between virtual and physical space.<br />
Sensors surrounding the structure of an<br />
actual door track visitors’ movements<br />
and change the portal on the screen’s<br />
perspective in an anamorphic system that<br />
adjusts to their visual angle in real time.<br />

Facebook Demetricator<br />
The Facebook interface is filled with<br />
numbers. Facebook Demetricator is a web<br />
browser add-on that hides these metrics<br />
and invites Facebook users to try the<br />
system without the numbers, to see how<br />
their experience is changed by the absence<br />
of metrics.<br />

Flower<br />
Flower reacts to the idea of the “gaze” in<br />
digital space, where people online are always<br />
vying for more views, likes, and mentions.<br />

Grafikdemo<br />
Grafikdemo is a physical wireframe of the<br />
quintessential 3D model, the standard<br />
“teapot”, built inside the frame of a classic<br />
Commodore CBM. Viewers use only the<br />
analog keys of the antiquated keyboard to<br />
manipulate the object inside, thus exposing<br />
the mechanical aspects of the project.<br />

The Kinetic Story Teller<br />
In this playful environment for social<br />
interaction, a pair of illuminated swing sets<br />
face each other. As participants swing on<br />
the structure, they are connected to a data<br />
stream of the networked landscape around<br />
them, specifically the social media banter<br />
of Twitter.<br />
