description

data drops examines the storage and build up of data over time, along with examining natural structures with similar processes of formation and deconstruction. We've constructed stalactites/stalagmites that build based off the dripping of our collected data; the petabytes we consume everyday. For the opening we pumped more plaster paris through stalactite so that I dripped down onto the stalagmite.
