(Pics) Meteorological Data Turned Into Sculptural Music Scores

By Naresh Kumar on September 1, 2010

Artist Nathalie Miebach extracts weather data from different cities and translates it into functional musical scores which she then uses to create sculptures.

Here’s what she says about her intriguing project:

These pieces are not only devices that map meteorological conditions of a specific time and place, but are also functional musical scores to be played by musicians. While musicians have freedom to interpret, they are asked not to change the essential relationship of the notes to ensure that what is still heard is indeed the meteorological relationship of weather data.
