Bloom , a serial publication of artworks that draw second movements around the Hayward Fault Zone in California , is Goldberg ’s latest expression of Earth ’s architectonic stateliness . Created in collaboration with Sanjay Krishnan of UC Berkeley , and Fernanda Viégas and Martin Wattenberg of Google’sBig Picture data visual image radical , each image in the series is in reality a sophisticated visualization of existent - time data on the vertical velocity of the Earth , collected off a seismograph and process to generate an evolve field of … .. lollipops ? Flowers ? Forces of mass destruction ? You settle .
The horizontal position of each of the blooms is base on meter , while its vertical place is found on the magnitude of the pace of change of motility detected at the seismograph . Large architectonic tremors create swelled bloom , small jitters are tiny buds . Add some splashy , vibrant colours , and you ’ve got yourself a hypnotically soothing seismograph readout . Now those are four Word of God I never think I ’d string together .
Bloom was commissioned by the Nevada Museum of Art and is dedicated to Color Field painter Kenneth Noland ( 1924 - 2010 ) . take more about the history of the projecthere .
