The project was developed in collaboration with the sound artist Philip Samartzis, who composed a sound installation from recordings including of melting glaciers and data centres that power AI.
Unclear Cloud, commissioned by the National Gallery of Victoria, explores a synthetic relationship of surface and structure through this 3D printed tectonic demonstrator project. The project expands on the logic developed in the Cloud Affects project, which demonstrated an approach to reinforcing 3D printed skins with an infused carbon fibre skeleton.
