Drone flight video documentation
Drone flight recorded as part of 'Light and Space' Residency at Holocenter, NYC, 2017. This flight data was paired with Galvanic Skin Response data from a Neulog sensor and rendered as a holographic work for ISDH2018.
Drone Flight Data (Google Earth Previews)
Screenshot showing all drone flights on Governors Island, visualised via Google Earth. Drone flight data is automatically recorded in Keyhole Markup Language (KML), largely for diagnostic/evidentiary purposes when a drone crashes or is used illegally.

Work In Progress imagery (Rhino/Grasshopper
Experimentation with rendering changes in Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) data as they correspond to drone flight. In this configuration, higher GSR (sweat response) creates larger circles along the drone flight path
