Abstract

R Scuti is an audio-visual installation that proposes the transposition of astronomical data into an exhibition environment, using star observation records from AAVSO database. The collected information, which corresponds to more than a century of observations, were digitally converted to sound patterns that materialize through cymatics on a water surface. This surface receives a light focus, which reflects the moving waves and creates luminous patterns on the room's ceiling. The present text acquaints the concept, creation details, and contextualization of R Scuti in the scenario of poetic data visualization, which took shape in this project from the interdisciplinary dialogue between art, science, and technology.
