As a Resident Scientist, I collaborated with artist Amy Wetsch to create a multimedia piece around the concept of cosmic radiation and its interactions with physiology-based in recent research findings under the Artemis Missions programs.

Cosmic radiation is most commonly understood as the astrophysical phenomena behind the Northern Lights. The origin is theorized to be bits and particles from faraway exploding stars. As spaceflight missions are planned beyond the Earth’s protective magnetic fields, recent research investigates how physiology may interact with the new intergalactic environments.

Below are a few photos of our process, our ideation was centered on representing the intimate interactions of biology (water and fluid textures) and cosmic radiation (iridescent and fractured). All final presentations and products are hosted under SUPERCOLLIDER.
