Bibliographic notes for "Big Data", published in YLEM, Artists Using
Science & Technology, Volume 24 Number 8, July-August 2004.
This issue of the YLEM journal features the texts by artists working
with large data sets in their practice, all of which were requested,
organized, and edited by Brett Stalbaum, originally for a special issue
of YLEM.
In Volume 24, Number 8 are:
Jevbratt, Lisa, "The Prospect of the Sublime in Data Visualizations"
Polli, Andrea, "Atmospherics/Weather Works: Artistic Sonification of
Meteorological Data"
My editorial notes for ylem (v24n6, v24n8) and scale (v1i6-7) also
include coverage of:
McPhee, Christina, Sense of Place and Sonic Topologies: Towards a
Telemimetic Sublime in the Data Landscape", which appeared in YLEM
journal, Volume 24 Number 6, May-June 2004.
McPhee's article was to have been part of the same "Big Data" issue, but
"Big Data" was split across two issues of YLEM due to the large size of
the articles. The articles from YLEM journal, Volume 24 Number 8,
July-August 2004, (Stalbaum, ed., Jevbratt, Polli) and YLEM Journal
Volume 24 Volume 24 Number 6, May-June 2004, (McPhee) are published
contiguously (as was originally intended) in the online journal Scale,
Volume 01, Issue 6+7,(Mike Podolak ed.), and can be viewed as an Adobe
Acrobat portable document format file at the following URL:
http://scale.ucsd.edu/volumes/2004/07/contents/scale-01-06_07-final.pdf
The online republication of the contiguous essays in Scale was approved
by YLEM managing editor Loren Means, where the material was first
published in print.
