Artist Statement:

Part of an ongoing exploration of the production of environmental information, this work monitors electricity use within a public building and translates the information into an olfactory experience. Smell is a primal mode of communication from which it is difficult to be intellectually distanced; by manifesting electricity information in this way, the work not only explores the mechanics of perceiving information, but also suggests new possibilities for designing a more evocative human-infrastructure interface.
