Airlight is the name given to a visible white smog caused by the illumination of fine dust particles in the air. Airlight Taipei is a networked real-time sound and visual installation using updated data from an EPA air-quality monitoring station in central Taipei indicating various air pollutant levels including sulphur dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide and ozone. This data is translated into sound and imagery in real time. The result is a rhythmic pulse that transforms throughout the day.
