《High Water》是悉尼绿色广场的永久公共艺术品。这是Indigo Hanlee, Michael Thomas Hill和Lightwell的合作。
该作品安装于2018年，是一个9米长的双面叶片，带有高分辨率LED屏幕，使用集成传感器和实时数据反馈图形化地解释当地天气模式和潮汐信息。
High Water的项目是使用手工创作的水彩画和生成艺术的混合风格创建的，它不断地转换相关的实时数据。
对于天空来说，温度会改变颜色的显示，湿度会影响花朵的大小，风向会通过动画在屏幕上的移动和速度来表示，降雨会变成水滴，沿着屏幕流下来。海平面从退潮到涨潮缓慢上升和下降，其颜色也反映了全年的温度。
我们的数据来自WillyWeather、气象局(BoM)、国家海洋和大气管理局(NOAA)以及安装在绿色广场上的当地气象传感器。
艺术品每小时将其视觉数据发送到在线存档www.highwater.sydney。这个档案可以让游客实时了解数据、颜色和图案，并看到当地环境条件在一天、一周和一年的视觉总结。
《High Water》是由悉尼市委托建造的。特别感谢Jisuk Han、Big Screen Projects和Event Engineering对这个项目的帮助。
High Water is a permanent public artwork at the Green Square Plaza in Sydney. It is a collaboration between Indigo Hanlee, Michael Thomas Hill and Lightwell.
Installed in 2018, the artwork is a nine metre two-sided blade with high resolution LED screens which graphically interpret local weather patterns and tidal information using integrated sensors and live data feeds.
High Water's program is created using a mixed style of hand-created watercolours and generative art that constantly transforms in relation to linked live data.
For the sky, temperature changes the display of colours, humidity affects the size of the blooms, wind direction is represented by the movement and velocity of the animation as it tracks across the screen, and rainfall becomes water droplets that run down the screen. The sea level is shown slowly rising and falling from low tide to high tide, with its colour also reflecting the temperature throughout the year.
Our data comes from WillyWeather, the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and local weather sensors installed at Green Square Plaza.
Once an hour the artwork sends its visual data to the online archive www.highwater.sydney. This archive allows visitors to understand the data, colours and patterns in real time and see visual summaries of local environmental conditions over the day, week and year.
High Water was commissioned by the City of Sydney. Special thanks to Jisuk Han, Big Screen Projects and Event Engineering for their help on this project.
