Looking Outwards 7:

Nathalie Miebach combines her love of art, science, and data analysis to create interesting sculptures that reflect the primal forces of nature. She transforms data taken from massive storms and turns them into 3-dimensional sculptures. Meteorological data is taken and then transformed into sound, which is then arranged into a “musical score” built entirely of weather data. This score is then combined with the sounds of human experiences and interpretations of the weather, creating a juxtaposition of objective and subjective data. This musical composition is then turned into a sculpture that reflects both the empirical data, and nuanced human emotions of a storm.

I really appreciate the subjective, sensational effect the sculptures have. Some of them look like actual buildings being torn apart by the wind, and some look like the distortions and disturbances in the air as a storm rips through.
