What you just heard
1
24000
2000
Ono što ste upravo čuli
00:41
are the interactions of barometric pressure, wind and temperature readings
2
26000
3000
je interakcija vazdušnog pritiska, vetra i očitavanja temperature,
00:44
that were recorded of Hurricane Noel in 2007.
3
29000
4000
koja su snimana kod uragana Noel 2007. godine.
00:48
The musicians played off a three-dimensional graph of weather data like this.
4
33000
4000
Muzičari su odsvirali trodimenzionalni grafikon vremenskih podataka, kao što je ovaj.
00:52
Every single bead, every single colored band,
5
37000
2000
Svaka pojedinačna perla, svaka obojena traka,
00:54
represents a weather element
6
39000
2000
predstavlja vremenski element
00:56
that can also be read as a musical note.
7
41000
3000
koji se takođe može čitati kao muzička nota.
00:59
I find weather extremely fascinating.
8
44000
2000
Smatram da je vreme izuzetno fascinantno.
01:01
Weather is an amalgam of systems
9
46000
2000
Vreme je mešavina sistema
01:03
that is inherently invisible to most of us.
10
48000
2000
koja je prirodno nevidljiva za većinu nas.
01:05
So I use sculpture and music
11
50000
2000
Zato, ja koristim skulpturu i muziku
01:07
to make it, not just visible,
12
52000
2000
da bih ga učinila, ne samo vidljivim,
01:09
but also tactile and audible.
13
54000
2000
već opipljivim i zvučnim.
01:11
All of my work begins very simple.
14
56000
2000
Sav moj posao počinje vrlo jednostavno.
01:13
I extract information from a specific environment
15
58000
2000
Izvodim informacije iz određene sredine
01:15
using very low-tech data collecting devices --
16
60000
3000
koristeći tehnički veoma primitivne uređaje za prikupljanje podataka --
01:18
generally anything I can find in the hardware store.
17
63000
3000
generalno sve što mogu naći u gvožđarskoj radnji.
01:21
I then compare my information to the things I find on the Internet --
18
66000
3000
Nakon toga, upoređujem svoje informacije sa stvarima koje pronađem na internetu --
01:24
satellite images, weather data
19
69000
2000
satelitske fotografije, podatke o vremenu
01:26
from weather stations as well as offshore buoys.
20
71000
3000
iz meteo-stanica kao i sa bova u blizini obale.
01:29
That's both historical as well as real data.
21
74000
2000
To su i istorijski i stvarni podaci.
01:31
And then I compile all of these numbers on these clipboards that you see here.
22
76000
3000
Nakon toga, sastavljam sve brojeve na ovim malim tablama koje možete da vidite ovde.
01:34
These clipboards are filled with numbers.
23
79000
2000
Ove male table su ispunjene brojevima.
01:36
And from all of these numbers,
24
81000
2000
I od svih tih brojeva,
01:38
I start with only two or three variables.
25
83000
2000
započinjem sa samo dve ili tri varijable.
01:40
That begins my translation process.
26
85000
2000
Ovim počinje proces mog prevođenja.
01:42
My translation medium is a very simple basket.
27
87000
3000
Moj medij za prevođenje je vrlo jednostavna korpa.
01:45
A basket is made up of horizontal and vertical elements.
28
90000
4000
Korpa je napravljena iz horizontalnih i vertikalnih elemenata.
01:49
When I assign values to the vertical and horizontal elements,
29
94000
3000
Kada prenosim vrednosti vertikalnim i horizontalnim elementima,
01:52
I can use the changes of those data points over time
30
97000
3000
mogu koristiti promene onih podataka kroz vreme
01:55
to create the form.
31
100000
2000
da bih stvorila oblik.
01:57
I use natural reed,
32
102000
2000
Mogu koristiti prirodnu trsku,
01:59
because natural reed has a lot of tension in it
33
104000
2000
jer prirodna trska ima u sebi mnogo napona,
02:01
that I cannot fully control.
34
106000
2000
koji ne mogu u potpunosti da kontrolišem.
02:03
That means that it is the numbers that control the form,
35
108000
2000
To znači da brojevi kontrolišu oblike,
02:05
not me.
36
110000
2000
a ne ja.
02:07
What I come up with are forms like these.
37
112000
2000
Ono što na kraju napravim je oblik kao što je ovaj.
02:09
These forms are completely made up
38
114000
2000
Ovi oblici su u potpunosti napravljeni
02:11
of weather data or science data.
39
116000
2000
od vremenskih ili naučnih podataka.
02:13
Every colored bead, every colored string,
40
118000
2000
Svaka obojena perla, svaka obojena traka,
02:15
represents a weather element.
41
120000
2000
predstavlja vremenski element.
02:17
And together, these elements, not only construct the form,
42
122000
2000
I zajedno, ovi elementi, ne samo da grade oblike,
02:19
but they also reveal behavioral relationships
43
124000
2000
već, takođe, otkrivaju odnose u ponašanju
02:21
that may not come across
44
126000
2000
koji se ne mogu naći
02:23
through a two-dimensional graph.
45
128000
2000
na dvodimenzionalnom grafiku.
02:25
When you step closer, you actually see
46
130000
2000
Kada se približite, vidite zapravo
02:27
that it is indeed all made up of numbers.
47
132000
2000
da je sve zaista napravljeno od brojeva.
02:29
The vertical elements
48
134000
2000
Vertikalni elementi
02:31
are assigned a specific hour of the day.
49
136000
2000
određuju specifične sate u danu.
02:33
So all the way around, you have a 24-hour timeline.
50
138000
3000
Dakle, sve zajedno, imate 24-casovnu vremensku crtu.
02:36
But it's also used to assign a temperature range.
51
141000
2000
Ali, koriste se i za određivanje opsega temperature.
02:38
On that grid, I can then weave the high tide readings,
52
143000
3000
Na toj koordinatnoj mreži, mogu zatim utkati i očitavanja plime,
02:41
water temperature, air temperature and Moon phases.
53
146000
3000
temperaturu vode, vazduha i faze Meseca.
02:44
I also translate weather data into musical scores.
54
149000
3000
Takođe prevodim i podatke o vremenu u muzičke note.
02:47
And musical notation allows me a more nuanced way
55
152000
3000
A muzička notacija mi omogućava određen način
02:50
of translating information
56
155000
2000
prevođenja informacija
02:52
without compromising it.
57
157000
2000
bez njihovog otkrivanja.
02:54
So all of these scores are made up of weather data.
58
159000
2000
Tako da, svaka od ovih nota je stvorena od vremenskih podataka.
02:56
Every single color, dot, every single line,
59
161000
2000
Svaka pojedinačna boja, crta,
02:58
is a weather element.
60
163000
2000
je vremenski element.
03:00
And together, these variables construct a score.
61
165000
3000
I zajedno, ove varijable grade note.
03:03
I use these scores to collaborate with musicians.
62
168000
2000
Koristim ove note da sarađujem sa muzičarima.
03:05
This is the 1913 Trio
63
170000
2000
Ovo je Trio 1913
03:07
performing one of my pieces
64
172000
2000
koji izvodi jedno od mojih dela
03:09
at the Milwaukee Art Museum.
65
174000
2000
u Umetničkom Muzeju u Milvokiju.
03:11
Meanwhile, I use these scores as blueprints
66
176000
3000
U međuvremenu, ja koristim ove note kao nacrte
03:14
to translate into sculptural forms like this,
67
179000
4000
za prevođenje u skulpturu kao što je ova,
03:18
that function still in the sense
68
183000
2000
koja još uvek funkcioniše
03:20
of being a three-dimensional weather visualization,
69
185000
2000
kao da je trodimenzionalna vremenska vizuelizacija,
03:22
but now they're embedding
70
187000
2000
ali sada ugrađuju
03:24
the visual matrix of the musical score,
71
189000
2000
vizuelnu matricu muzičke partiture,
03:26
so it can actually be read as a musical score.
72
191000
2000
tako da se zapravo mogu čitati kao muzičke note.
03:28
What I love about this work
73
193000
2000
Ono što volim u ovom poslu
03:30
is that it challenges our assumptions
74
195000
2000
je da preispituje naše pretpostavke
03:32
of what kind of visual vocabulary belongs in the world of art, versus science.
75
197000
3000
o tome koja vrsta vizuelnog rečnika pripada svetu umetnosti, a koja nauci.
03:35
This piece here is read very differently
76
200000
2000
Ovo delo ovde čitano je vrlo različito
03:37
depending on where you place it.
77
202000
2000
zavisno od toga gde ste ga postavili.
03:39
You place it in an art museum, it becomes a sculpture.
78
204000
2000
Postavite ga u umetnički muzej, ono postaje skulptura.
03:41
You place it in a science museum,
79
206000
2000
Postavite ga u muzej nauke,
03:43
it becomes a three-dimensional visualization of data.
80
208000
3000
ono postaje trodimenzionalna vizuelizacija podataka.
03:46
You place it in a music hall,
81
211000
2000
Postavite ga u muzičku dvoranu
03:48
it all of a sudden becomes a musical score.
82
213000
2000
i ono iznenada postaje muzičko delo.
03:50
And I really like that,
83
215000
2000
I to mi se zaista sviđa,
03:52
because the viewer is really challenged
84
217000
2000
jer je gledalac pred izazovom
03:54
as to what visual language
85
219000
2000
o tome da li je vizuelni jezik
03:56
is part of science versus art versus music.
86
221000
2000
deo nauke ili umetnosti ili muzike.
03:58
The other reason why I really like this
87
223000
2000
Drugi razlog zbog kog zaista volim ovo
04:00
is because it offers an alternative entry point
88
225000
3000
je zato što nudi alternativnu polaznu tačku
04:03
into the complexity of science.
89
228000
2000
u složenost nauke.
04:05
And not everyone has a Ph.D. in science.
90
230000
2000
A nemaju svi doktorat iz nauke.
04:07
So for me, that was my way into it.
91
232000
2000
Dakle za mene, ovo je bio moj put.
04:09
Thank you.
92
234000
2000
Hvala Vam.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Nathalie Miebach - ArtistNathalie Miebach is a Boston-based artist who translates weather data into complex sculptures and musical scores.
Why you should listen
Nathalie Miebach's work focuses on the intersection of art and science and the visual articulation of scientific observations. Her woven sculptures interpret scientific data related to astronomy, ecology and meteorology in three-dimensional space. Her pieces simulatneously function as works of art, aural embodiments of data (musical compositions) and instruments that illustrate environmental change.
By utilizing artistic processes and everyday materials, Miebach questions and expands the boundaries of traditional science data visualization -- and provokes expectations of what visual vocabulary is considered to be in the domain of science and art. Miebach is a TEDGlobal 2011 Fellow.
