Noise for Airports

Nathalie Miebach is a sculptor who makes “sculptural musical scores” based on weather data. If that sounds confusing, imagine how you might play the sculpture pictured above. Apparently the process goes: gather weather data, make into score that looks like this, and then make either a sculpture or music from it. She’s got a lot of pictures of her sculptures on her website.
(I like how “data” is in her list of media for the sculptures.)

modus operandi

“To treat a plan - or any other form of prescriptive representation - as a speciﬁcation for a course of action shuts down precisely the space of inquiry that begs for investigation; that is, the relations between an ordering device and the contingent labors through which it is produced and made reﬂexively accountable to ongoing activity.” –Lucy Suchman, Human-Machine Reconfigurations

"Is it our fault if the networks are simultaneously real, like nature, narrated, like discourse, and collective, like society? Are we to pursue them while abandoning all the resources of criticism, or are we to abandon them while endorsing the common sense of the critical tripartition?" –Bruno Latour,
We Have Never Been Modern
