From Green to Red takes the audience on a journey through our planet’s timeline, and specifically human impact, offering a powerful and dynamic visualization of 800,000 years of rising CO2 levels. Beatie Wolfe’s innovation translates intangible data, and a vast timeline often beyond our capacity to consider, into something that everyone can comprehend and feel in the length of a song. “This piece is about re-presenting data in a way that people can literally see differently, using the power of art and music to make it evocative and relatable,” Wolfe says, “so that people can really get a sense of where we are right now.”
Please note: The project “From Green to Red” by Beatie Wolfe can be seen daily from September 4 to 8, 2024, from 21:00 to 0:00 on the illuminated façade of the Ars Electronica Center.
