Abstract

This paper details a sound map artwork with a visual map component in order to communicate the characteristics of Big Data, namely the volume, velocity, variety and uncertainty aspects of such datasets. It represents an attempt to address a part of the current research agenda on applying cartography to the visual representation and interaction with big spatial datasets. As an artist-scientist collaboration, the research concentrates on electrical signals and humans as transducers of those signals into data. We trace the evolution of the artwork, details construction, collection of representative signal data and context, leading to its exhibition as part of an “Art and Space” theme in a gallery in Dunedin, NZ. Finally, an explanation of and reaction to, the artwork is provided. Visitors reacted positively to the artwork, which conveyed the characteristics of Big Data through a mix of tactile and embodied interaction, sound representations and visual cartographic design/spatial data choice elements.
