how long is a day?
2020 | Chatbot on smartphone, lightbulb, microcontroller, variable dimensions (creative coding: Daniele Murgia)
A Telegram chatbot sends various information about the International Space Station every 40 seconds.
Due to its high speed, the time dimension is out of phase: the ISS takes just 90 minutes to go around the planet and from it you can see 16 sunrises and 16 sunsets in 24 hours.
The perception of this infinite space, from a delimited and reassuring place, the museum, is accompanied by a blue light bulb that lights up every time the ISS passes over the museum (about 10 times a day).
