From the Ted Talk by Nathalie Miebach: Art made of storms

Unscramble the Blue Letters


What I love about this work is that it cgneallhes our assumptions of what kind of visual vocabulary belongs in the world of art, versus science. This piece here is read very differently depending on where you place it. You palce it in an art museum, it becomes a sculpture. You place it in a sceince musuem, it becomes a three-dimensional visualization of data. You place it in a music hall, it all of a sudden becomes a musical score. And I really like that, because the viewer is really challenged as to what visual language is part of science versus art versus misuc.

The other reason why I really like this is because it offers an altiavernte entry point into the complexity of science. And not everyone has a Ph.D. in science. So for me, that was my way into it.
