Angela Bulloch Night Sky: Mars from Venus.12, 2007 LED installation, neoprene, Pollopas mirror, aluminium profiles Angela Bulloch's Night Sky works rely on computer simulation algorithms to generate views of the universe from positions other than Earth. They belong to a body of works that is dealing with different kinds of visual representations of the Earth, our solar system and the universe. The concept of the Night Sky is based on a space travel simulation software called Celestia, which is used in planetariums. The lightning of the stars and planets is based on algorithms and commands that the artist programmed. Photo © Rafael Goldchain
