For my final project, I would like to propose a permanent installation for the Gallatin lobby that visualizes some or all of the buildings most interesting statistical data and demonstrates how design can be functional, attractive, and still environmentally responsible.
By making the information--that is already available-- public, we can increase awareness and disseminate useful information in an attractive way. This project would attempt, not only to visualize the information, but also show the users affect on the display in real time. The ultimate goal is to influence people's behavior through the use of functional public art.
Initial questions:
How is the energy metered?
How quickly does the value change?
Can one individual have a visible affect on the value?
How will the information be displayed?
How much energy will the display itself consume?
How can than be offset?
Who is the audience?
How can it influence behavior?
