Lakeside Echo 数据深潭
Based on freshwater and satellite data from Bangalore spanning 2000–2022, Lakeside Echo constructs an immersive virtual water cycle through generative art technologies and a real-time interaction system. Extending the visual language of the artist’s ongoing "Climate Change Series," the installation employs particle simulations to visualize lakes, rivers, and intricate water movements dynamically. Collaboration with Indian STEM contemporary dancers,machine-captured body movement in real-time via motion-tracking, actively interact with these virtual ecosystems, integrating human presence deeply into the data-driven narrative.
In this artwork, climate data becomes perceptual and emotional energy. AI-driven interactions poetically transform scientific information into compelling narratives, raising awareness about regional water shortages and the global climate crisis. Ultimately, Lakeside Echo invites contemplation on the fragile symbiosis linking humans, nature, and the cosmos, emphasizing humans' profound role and potential within ecological systems.
