Meredith Tromble and Dawn Sumner - Of CAVEs and Curiosity: Imaging and Imagination in Collaborative Research
Berkeley Center for New Media · University of California, Berkeley
About
"Of CAVEs and Curiosity: Imaging and Imagination in Collaborative Research" In the KeckCAVES visualization facility at UC Davis, one can walk into a snowflake or fly over a landslide. Images from around space and time flicker into existence as researchers interact with their data in three dimensions. Among the sights to be seen are ancient microbes, chaotic attractors, and the surface of Mars; and, now, the beginnings of a vortex of dreams, a virtual installation built from the inner lives of researchers studying the outer world. "Take Me To Your Dream (Dream Vortex)," a virtual installation in-progress by artist/writer Meredith Tromble, geobiologist Dawn Sumner, and willing CAVES researchers, is intended as a creative stimulus for anyone at work in the CAVES. And it is the springboard for a discussion of imaging and collaboration in art and science, including Sumner's experiences on the Curiosity Mars mission.
