The May artport gatepage features Andrea Polli's Atmospherics / Weather
Works, a system for understanding weather patterns through sound. The
interactive work allows viewers to select and listen to the sound of data
generated by a highly detailed and physically accurate simulation of a
historic hurricane that devastated the New York / Long Island area. The
resultant compositions allow listeners to experience geographically scaled
events on the human scale of perception and provide a model for
understanding the unpredictable and complex rhythms and melodies of nature.
