Tangible Universe
Annika Kreikenbohm (DE)
In the study of the universe, light is the one of the main sources of information accessible to us. Using satellites and telescopes, we collect the light of astronomical objects. First, each object appears as a single cloud of light. In the closer analysis of light, we recognize its nature and can distinguish stars from galaxies. In the virtual environment, numerical satellite data is translated into light sculptures and light is made tangible by haptic stimuli.
