Satellite Voyeurism / A few comments on the success of Google Earth

 

The "Satellite Voyeurism" workshop addressed questions of the production and consumption of satellite imagery. Discussing the success of Google Earth and similar software, artists aimed to create their "own" satellite images. The participants were provided with the hands-on experience to receive satellite images from the NOAA satellites, which is documented in this publication.
