N2 - Through augmented reality, drawing and animation, The Forecast Factory generates dynamic visual compositions in response to real-time weather data.The exhibition is based on experimental physicist Lewis Fry Richardson’s 19th century proposal for a factory in which human computers forecast the weather. More than 100 years later, this creative reinvention of the Forecast Factory returns hand-made and analogue aesthetics to Richardson’s theory of mathematical weather prediction that is still used in meteorology today. The AR compositions in this work are generated according to environmental conditions in locations threatened by climate changed around the world. Combining hand-drawn aesthetics with images and data received directly from weather satellites, the installation redistributes human and machine interpretation where weather systems and digital networks intersect.
