Overview

The coloured light and deconstructed choral soundscape are manipulated by an algorithm that uses the weather data from four real-world rainforests to represent a year-in-the-life of these incredible Weather Makers. With the environment in a continual state of flux, the transient light, colour and mist mimic the weather conditions at the rainforest locations. Precipitation, temperature, humidity, wind speed and cloud cover all influence the light and the soundscape.
