In Time est un projet qui utilise des données et vues d’artistes de l’Observatoire Paranal du Chili (entre autres), qui se focalisent sur la cosmologie. C’est une quête personnelle dans la connaissance de l’origine de l’Univers, et plus précisément dans la manière dont il a évolué de ses premiers moments au moment présent. Une intervention est mise en place sur les données visuelles pour les rendre visuellement obsolètes, en allant à l'encontre de ce qui est attendu de l'imagerie astronomique depuis Hubble : une image en couleurs la plus nette possible. Les sons, venant d’archives de la NASA et de l’Agence Spatiale Européenne comprenant des sonifications comme celle du Soleil (représentation et l’émission de données sous forme de signaux acoustiques non verbaux aux fins de la transmission ou de la perception d’information) sont mis en écho de manières intuitives et personnelles avec les phénomènes visuels.
In Time is a project that uses datas and artist's impressions from the European Southern Observatory in Chile (between others), that focuses on cosmology. It's a personal attempt to learn more about the Universe's origin, and more precisely, in the ways that it evolved to be what it is in the present time. Visual datas have been altered to make them look outdated, in an aesthetic that goes against what is expected from the astronomical imagery since Hubble : an image in colors as sharp as possible. Sounds, coming from archives of NASA and the European Space Agency including sonifications such as that of the Sun (representation and emission of data in the form of non-verbal acoustic signals for the purposes of transmission or perception of information) are echoed in intuitive and personal ways with the visual phenomenas.
