How’s the Weather in There?

Do you know the barometric pressure of your own home? The dew point? Do you even know the temperature? The Interactive Research Studio at Goldsmiths has started a project called Legible Landscapes and has asked Snipe to find them some volunteers!

They’re working on a design project called Legible Landscapes that tracks the environmental landscape of the home, and what do you know, they’re looking for volunteers. What does it mean to be a volunteer for them? Well they’ve got a whole page on their website about it, but basically you live with yet another little digital device in your home, and it keep track of the microclimate where you live.

If you live in SE4, SE8, SE14, SE23 and have always wanted to be involved in an arty, sciency, meteorologyish project but just haven’t known where to turn, now is your chance!
