01Surface Tension
作者：Caitlin Foley / Misha Rabinovich
形式：Live-updating procedural 3D animation
时间：2019
Surface Tension is a visualization that bridges the gap between the abstract and personal understanding of freshwater conditions. The work maps daily United States Geological Survey (USGS) streamflow data using a mesmerizing display. Water supports life but can also drown and destroy. People are mostly water, but the melting ice caps threaten our very existence. Harnessing this elemental force requires a balancing act and this artwork is a reflection on humanity’s fraught relationship with freshwater. The open source project uses publicly accessible (FAIR) data, was commissioned by NC State University, and funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. https://caitlinandmisha.com/surface-tension/
02Data-Confluences
作者：Clarissa Ribeiro
形式：Data-sculptures
时间：2021
Exploring data-aesthetics in the generative design of a series of data-sculptures, the work combines and interlaces as raw data the audio track of short videos made by the artist from her apartment's balcony during the 2021 lockdown in Brazil, with the audio track extracted from short videos shared by 10 invited contaminants-friends and colleagues based on each of the seven continents as glimpses of their surrounding environment. In times we are still facing the impacts and restrictions of the Covid-19 pandemic, Data-Confluences (2021) is a celebration of the vital need of getting together. Invited contaminants: Jill Scott, Marille Hahne and Claudia Westermann (Europe), Victoria Vesna, Mick Lorusso and Karina Lopez (North America), Rewa Wright (Australia), Stavros Didakis and Yunle Chen (Asia), Ruy Cezar Campos (Africa), PROANTAR (Antarctic).
03Untitled (Particledance07)
作者：Bill Miller
形式：Animation
时间：2017
When I first began working with motion capture, I was struck by the possibilities that arise from transforming human movement into data. MOCAP data are generally organized as points moving in space over time. They are often structured in a hierarchy where each point's movement information is relative to that of other points. This creates a sort of 'movement system' that is ordered to create a relationship between a human skeleton and a 3D model rig. Once the information is captured, however, MOCAP data is not restricted to being visualized as a humanoid form. An opportunity is opened for the data to take on new forms. In a recent series of animated videos, I've attached MOCAP data to simulations like cloth, soft bodies, hair, and bodies. The results are like ghosts and monsters... they maintain realistic and believable motion because of their origination in human movement systems but they are released as abstract digital beings... as if the nude descending the staircase removed its skin to reveal an array of data points.
04解构藏文
作者：宋安琪/宋欣潼/陈玉昊/罗光郁/李谦升
形式：互动网站
时间：2021
本作品通过数据解构藏文字的字体结构、解密藏汉书法书写时的运动特征与字形特点，以及解读藏文诗集的内容与情感，以交互式网站为传播媒介。从数据的视角重新审视藏文蕴含的文化价值，使用数据可视化建起藏汉文化交流的桥梁。
05Emotional Wave
作者：李嘉薇
形式：沉浸式空间
时间：2020
在这个身份感正在崩溃的时代，媒体叙事作为既定叙事过程的固化模式，正在经历着前所未有的变化。我们需要设计新的空间来证明所有的可能性。我们也需要找到一种归属感，特别是当人们处于被资本和技术边缘化的过程中。我希望每个用户都能创建自己的身份账户，并将我们自己的联觉体验与创建的数字实例联系起来。在虚拟空间和真实空间之间搭建一座桥梁。
06非理性切片 Irrational Slice
作者：赵璐/张儒赫/王琪/李晓颖
形式：交互视频
时间：2020
一次关于认知的实验，人类选择（有情绪）与机器随机选择（无情绪）的相互对抗,探究人类思维中的非理性层面。力求让观者在有更好互动的基础上，能够多角度更清晰的接收信息、拓展信息观察新的思路。
07Invisible Pixel
作者：朱钧霖/赵文轩/段滢静/龙娟娟
形式：交互程序
时间：2021
互联网与社交媒体将私人表达转化为公共交流，迅速扩展了城乡间的文化亲密性。作品是基于unity开发的互动作品，通过采集快手平台扶贫计划中活跃账户的视频数据，提炼描述性文本输入Deep-Daze中生成影像，描绘机器视角下的数据叙事景观。
08Falling
作者：Sandrine Deumier
形式：360° Video
时间：2019
Falling is the study of a collapse. Consisting of nine “collapsology” scenes created from Internet culture imaginaries, this artwork tries to interrogate a possible dismantling of the human practices of nature subjection and species classification through a search of eco-feminist postures. The project is based on the power of utopian and feminist anticipations, and the idea of short-circuiting collective imaginations from the Internet to develop new utopias and invent sustainable imaginations.
Thank you reviewers for their contributions in the review of works!
