Mapping erosion levels
Here’s a map of the space from the data gathered.
On the left is a map of numbers. Each number relates to a pixel in the sculpture and correlates to the number of times that area was walked through.
On the right is a choropleth map showing levels of erosion in shades of grey (white = no erosion / black = highest erosion)
Whoopee!

This is the final week of my MFA program at Parsons in Design & Technology. I’m a little sad, but really excited. I’m also excited about this new exhibition @ MCA in Denver by sound artist Jim Green.
Looks like it will be a fun exhibit! I will be in NYC this summer, so if you go see the exhibit, send me a video of the sound! I just can’t resist a good whoopie cushion! ;)

Here’s some nice pics / video of the exhibition over the weekend. Thanks to Claudio, Doris, Conway and all those who posted pics!
