"Confluence is a new arts, technology and environment project being delivered by partners Beaford Arts, the North Devon Biosphere Foundation, Appledore Arts and University of Plymouth’s i-DAT (Institute of Digital Arts and Technology)", (http://x2.i-dat.org/confluence). The project involves aspects of environmental consciousness and discovery, active participation, data measurement, and artistic interpretations. In a wide outdoor area specific wireless sensor interfaces (ECOIDs) will be implemented in order to take frequent snapshots of environmental data (such as humidity, temperature, light, and so on). The data will be recorded for a very long period in i-DAT and they will be explored from various artists for translation into art forms. For the demands of this installation a workshop was provided by the i-DAT members that explored various issues of programming in Processing language, a fundamental analysis of the ECOIDs, and other issues concerning aesthetics, environmental opportunities and approaches, as well as media art design and technology.
