THE ORIGIN OF CLOUDS : Public Installation The Origin of Clouds derives from an experiment to study the formation of clouds that appeared within the larger context of weather phenomena research at the end of the nineteenth century. The experiment failed in explaining this phenomenon and was never able to provide a better understanding of clouds, storms or lighting, but made an unexpected discovery by enabling the visualization of fundamental particles for the first time. This “accident” became the visual proof of the existence of the sub atomic world and had a profound influence in the research of atomic energy. Alejandro Borsani is an Argentinean artist and educator who explores the intersection of natural and artificial systems by creating videos, installations, sculptures, custom software and electronics. His research is driven by a curiosity in simple physical phenomena and the exploration of emergent technologies. alejandroborsani.ar/ thestoryoflight.org
