This digital media installation by artist Weihao Qiu challenged guests to change the way they look at photos and altered their perspective on significant moments in time. Qiu is a creative coder, media artist and freelance photographer with a computer science and Media Arts and Technology background. He conceived “Exposure & Light” as data visualization project representing a curated database of publicly available Flickr photos for a specific 24-hour period. The media installation lead viewers to review the significant dates of exactly when the photos were taken, as well as question how the distributions differ around the world.
