Artistic partners Ouchhh and GrandSon Creative have earned global acclaim for their wildly imaginative and breathtaking data visualizations: Information as fine art. In DATANOVA, they’re guided by the idea of a supernova as they illustrate a virtual explosion of data gleaned from New York State star charts. They aim to establish an audio and visual dialogue between the urban and stellar landscapes that surround us. The piece is given additional depth by exploring the concept that the universe itself is guided by some unseen algorithm which brings all matter, both animate and inanimate, into harmony.
