When I saw this I wasn't sure what it was or what it represented as workers were finishing the installation. Since then I've learned that it represents data visualization it reflects the global impact of food production and consumption on the environment. Part of the "Around The Table" exhibit at the New York Botanical Garden. I still don't understand it but it's nice to look at.
Under the cover of night, Eurasian forces move through an industrial area of Pristina. The target: a LORO data centre believed to contain data drives taken in the arrest of multiple Eurasian ambassadors during a meeting in Copenhagen. While the Nordic oil fields had been of prior interest, the seized data contained developing information on large reserves hidden along the Northern coast of Libya.

The Mata-Nui mainframe has been infected by the Makuta Virus. Engage Data Knight Kopaka to freeze the virus's operations and cool the overheated GPU.
My entry into Ron's What If...? contest. I decided to reimagine Kopaka as a sort of cybertech knight dude in a Tron-esque data scape. Originally this was going to be a very different character design, but I ended up splitting it into this and another MOC I'll be sharing in October since the two concepts didn't really merge well.

two weeks ago I was confronted with my data in a hard way. My large storage device “Drobo” refused to operate after I upgraded it with another 2TB drive. The drive became unresponsive and after a while it did came back giving me the opportunity to retrieve some data…since this was my largest storage device I had to make sacrifices to the data I could retrieve, so I had to delete all my movies, series and software I had collected over the years. Luckily I did manage to backup my photography work.
That same week my laptop died and it has been sent back to Apple for repairs.
Fortunatly I do hold regular backup sessions, but it’s still a hassle and I’m once again aware that all data is fleeting, and no storage medium is safe from harm. Photo’s can burn, disk drives will fail…it’s time holographic data crystals are made…at least they seem stable enough….

This book, published on the occasion the exhibition at the Centre Pompidou, presents the complex work of the Japanese artist. Continuum explores the links between mathematics, code and visual installation from an unpublished work exhibited in Paris, based on two spaces creating a visual and audio immersive path. The reader, as the visitor in the exhibition, would cross these two spaces orchastrated as an opposition : Datascape and Environnement Sonore.

Some new data for this nebula went public yesterday, and... it's different. The observations were almost all narrowband emission lines, and there were a lot of them. Five visible, four near-infrared, two wideband near-infrared. For this image I used only the visible filters. It turned out quite colorful, and quite unlike all the Hubble imagery that came before it. [O III] really wants to dominate the image, but I toned it down quite a bit with a technique I only use rarely, which is to group filters by the similarity the reveal within the object rather than trying to merge all filters into a single image.
If you would like to see the old image of this nebula, check here: flic.kr/p/fC7DwR
I was interested to see if any more structures were revealed especially in the near-infrared data, like the double rings (it's questionable they are really rings), but it's not nearly as apparent in these data as it was back in the old NICMOS data. The double rings, if that's what they are, are most pronounced in F212N, which is a molecular hydrogen filter. None of the filters for this image reveal quite the same structure that the F212N filter did.
The nebula expanded quite a bit in the two decades since the previous HST observations were taken. In terms of this image, the maximum movement amounted to around 8 pixels at WFC3/UVIS resolution (100% zoom of this image). All of the stars moved around, too. The new image is slightly higher resolution, but not much.
Explaining the processing further, I took the F673N, F487N, & F343N filters to make a 3-color image. I chose these because none of them was overwhelmingly brighter in any area than the other, but they all do still reveal delicate color separation. Next, I combined the F656N and F502N filters into a 2-color image. The signal for these two filters was much more intense, and they worked nicely together to reveal the fainter structures of the nebula, especially those faint shells emanating gently outward from the nebula in nearly circular formation. The 2-color combination is not especially colorful though, so I used it as a luminosity layer. Stars are always funky in narrowband imagery, so I removed all the stars from the 3-color image, leaving the 2-color luminosity layer to show them.
Data from the following proposal were used to create this image:
Luminosity:
WFC3/UVIS F656N + WFC3/UVIS F502N
Color:
Red: WFC3/UVIS F673N
Green: WFC3/UVIS F487N
Blue: WFC3/UVIS F343N
