“Tides” is a data-driven light installation designed to probe the complexities of time. The piece is a digital sundial to interpret the unique interplay of light and shadow within its singular space. “Tides” adapts dynamically to a range of variables for time recording: it reflects the specific timezone, elevation, and weather patterns of its location, making each experience distinct and unrepeatable.

The project was developed by Crystal Jow as part of her residency at Thinker Maker Space of CYENS.
