Angela Bulloch's Night Sky series relies on computer simulation algorithms to generate views of the universe from positions other than Earth. Night Sky: Mars from Venus: 12, for example, shows the celestial bodies, including a distant Mars, as seen from Venus. Much of Bulloch's work uses technology to expand our perception of space.
