DATA GATE_World’s First AI Astronomical Research Data Sculpture Public Art
NANJING/CHINA
STATEMENT
KEPLER: 9.6 Years in Space_2662 Planets confirmed_61 Supernovae Documented_530,506 Stars observed
The installation consists of 3 parts; Form, Light and Space. Light is world’s first artwork based upon the idea of utilization of Machine Learning in the context of space discovery and astronomical research through NASA’s Kepler Data Sets.
By using the Kepler data from NASA, the public will be able to observe the exoplanets [planets that orbit around other stars] which human life can exist in. By taking this concept one step further, Ouchhh aims for this artwork to be considered as a gate between our planet and other habitable planets around the universe.
STATEMENT
Ouchhh will visualize and stylize the findings of these Neural Networks for identifying exoplanets using the dimming of the flux. The resulting work will invite visitors to plunge into the fascinating world of space discovery through immersive data sculpture. The installation will offer a poetic sensory experience and is meant to become a monument of mankind’s contemplative curiosity and profound need for exploration.

BACKGROUND
By using machine learning and AI algorithms; we wondered about the poetic breakdown of AI and the theories that it may create from theories, articles, and books we have created about millions of lines (about 20 million) of light, physics, space, time, and the new ideas that the famous scientists who change the destiny of the world and so we have created Poetic AI solo exhibition starting with the idea of making this on a huge canvas that is been experienced in our own Ouchhh style.
WHY PARIS?
Paris has been the centre for both artistic developments and philosophy for centuries. Thus, Paris’s influence on the art world has never been local. Many trends, thoughts, and techniques first appeared there, then spread to Europe. As Ouchhh, we have accepted Atelier Des Lumieres’ invitation to unite traditional art in Paris with new media and reinterpret an existing feeling in the city to redefine art with Al algorithms.
