tele-present wind (Mars wind version)

DAVID BOWEN

2024

This installation is a collaboration with the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The piece consists of a series of 126 x/y tilting mechanical devices connected to tall dried grass stalks installed like a field in the gallery. The mechanisms will tilt, move and sway based on data collected from the wind sensor on the Perseverance Mars rover. Dr. José A Rodríguez-Manfredi, lead scientist on the Mars Environmental Dynamics Analyzer on Perseverance assisted us in collecting the wind data for the project. That data is mapped to the movement of the mechanisms. Thus, the individual components of the installation here on earth will move in unison as they mimic the direction and intensity of the wind from another planet.

The thing about the classic "game which initially appears to be a walking simulator about exploring a cave, then you make a Shocking Discovery which establishes the game's real genre" conceit is that there are really no limits on what that real genre can be. "Dungeon crawler" and "survival horror" are traditional, of course, but there's no rule that says the answer can't be "shop simulator".

a walking simulator about reconnecting people by delivering packages, which 80 hrs in reveals its true genre: 2D arcade fighter.

no but seriously, ALSO there’s no limits to starting scenario that lead to the shopping simulator

returning home after a tumultuous semester at college? set up shop

finally come of age in your tribe and survived the rite of passage ordeal? set up shop

just awoken from hyper sleep wearing nothing but your skivvies? set up shop

crash landed on an alien world with no memory of who you are or where you’re from? SET UP SHOP
