The Planet is a hyperobject, and we only have access to a minuscule subset of it through our senses. How can art help us grasp the unseen? From today’s article:
Much of the visualization used to represent the Anthropocene has moved away from photographic forms of representation and instead relies on data, sensors, and forms of automated statistical analysis, including that which is invisible to the human eye. Technologies such as satellite imaging, remote sensing systems, 3D predictive simulation and image recognition algorithms produce images of informatic landscapes from the viewpoint of a distant, remote gaze and at a planetary scale.
