Note: A new work by fabric | ch has been commissionned and aquired by the Haus der elektronischen Künste (HeK) in Basel for the museum's collection, part of the Satellite Daylight serie of "environmental devices".
It is the second work of fabric | ch that enters the collection, after a serie of four videos related to Satellite Daylight and entitled Satellite Daylight Pavilion. We are glad to join artists in the collection like Jodi, mediengruppe!Bitnick, Etoy, ... and also former students or colleagues at ECAL/University of Art and Design Lausanne (Juerg Lehni, Gisin & Vanetti, FragmentIn)!
This new artwork is entitled Satellite Daylight 47°33'N, and circles in fictious and continous way around the 47°33'N latitude -- while acquiring live environmental data about daylight, light intensity, nebulosity and cloud cover that drive the luminous display. --
This continuous circonvolution, at the speed of a real Earth Satellite and that triggers 16 nights and days per regular day on Earth, produces a new combined daylight at the point of installation, both local and internationally mediated.
Satellite Daylight's is an open serie of unique artworks, each located on a different latitude.
