Cloud Seed is an interactive video artwork that immerses the viewer in a simulation of rain, fog, and rain.

The installation uses a high resolution video screen acting like a window to an outside virtual space. The visual effects of this natural phenomena appearing before the viewer through calculated warping of the live image on the screen.

The viewer sees themselves in the screen with raindrops collecting on the surface. The raindrops eventually run down the surface, leaving streaks on the video. All of this is done in realtime using custom programmed software. Visitors can see themselves with- in the raindrops with the image getting blurry as it gets foggier.

Cloud Seed uses technology to bring attention to our influence and control of the envi- ronment in a visual way that is both poetic and cinematic. It brings the viewer to a space that is both real and generated, contemplative and sublime.
