David Bowen's art installation, tele-present wind, creatively translates NASA's Perseverance rover data into a physical experience. By connecting grass stalks to mechanical devices, the work allows viewers to feel the movement that reflects Martian data in real-time. This immersive approach contrasts with Bowen's earlier work that used live sensor data, demonstrating a progression in his artistic exploration. He expresses a desire for more visceral connections in art, such as relating global warming projections to more everyday experiences, hinting at the potential for deeper realizations through interactive installations.
In this installation, Bowen's integration of mechanical devices and sensor data allows visitors to engage physically with abstract Martian data, creating a unique sensory experience.
Bowen has evolved his work from utilizing live data from sensors to translating complex datasets into an immersive physical environment that challenges perceptions of data.
