Organ-ism is a collection of scripts and algorithms that attempt to explore ideas on data visualizations. This project originated on experimentation with the php image manipulation kit and MySQL database and the Internet as a platform for aesthetic, algorithmic and perceptual experience. As the name “organ-ism” implies this project is an visual instrument and tool. The visualization establishes an abstract metaphor; that of an “object” that reacts to the changes of temperature, humidity, wind and other climatic properties in order to visualize the weather. Therefore, it creates images−the psyche of the “organism−by collecting weather data such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, etc., and algorithmically associating them to the properties of a fantastic organism. In detail, the shape size of the “worm” refers to the current temperature; so when the temperature at the referred location is high the organism expands. Respectively, when the temperature is low the organism contracts. The visualization acquires a new set of data every 2 hours and has so far collected data since the 25th of January 2007.
