Air is a speculative project that envisions a future where planetary-scale computation functions like a weather system. In this world, a smart home device called Air predicts the daily influence of this vast computational network on individuals. It does this by analyzing virtual data movements streaming in and out of users, data centers, and AI. By merging insights from atmosphere-like data patterns, Air forecasts potential disruptions, or "storms," in this data-driven environment.

This work is presented as a VR video.

This work is an web user manual leading to a VR video that depicts three mornings of a person waking up to interact with Air. The person’s daily features are unrecognized to himself. Only through weather maps and conversations with Air, he got a grasp of an upcoming data-storm.



In the video, through the eye of the smart home device--Air--time, body, and data are overlapped and displaced.
