Decode: Digital Design Sensations, V&A
data.scan is an attempt to materialise the vast quantities of data surrounding us in our everyday lives. It is part of Ikeda’s ongoing datamatics series, a collection of works that investigate the minutiae and infinite qualities of data. The installation is composed of computational code, with data collected from two investigative studies, one mapping the stars, the other mapping the human body. They present an extreme illustration of information, mixing the comprehensible with a scale that defies comprehension.
Commissioned by Surrey Art Gallery in Canada, data.scan forms part of Decode: Digital Design Sensations, curated in collaboration with onedotzero. The exhibition aims to show the latest developments in digital and interactive design, from small screen based graphics to large-scale installations.
