The eCloud Sculpture is an interactive installation project that is located at the San Jose International Airport and created in 2010. Whenever I travel I usually go to this airport and these endless line of tiles have always intrigued my eye while walking down the long hallway.
This sculpture is made up of hundreds of polycarbonate tiles hung from a tensile structure that respond to the real-time weather data from all over the world by changing from transparent to opaque. The tiles reflect the current weather as when it is raining the eCloud looks like it is dropping while when it is cloudy the display feels slow and lazy. This installation created by artist Aaron Koblin, designer Nik Hafermaas, and NASA visual strategist Dan Good is inspired by the behavior and volume of an idealized cloud and produced by UEBERSEE which is an artist production platform specializing in converging digital media with spatial experiences
