Bird
Migration – Cape Cod (October/ November, 2006)
Reed, wood, data, 9’x7’x4’, 2007
Using
a base of 24 hours, this piece converts bird migration data, which
is both locally collected (at Herring Cove) and compared to larger
regional and historical data sets. Data translates include twilight
readings, sunrise/set, moonrise/set, temperature (air, water and
soil), wind speed and direction, wave direction and bird sightings.
