Atmospheric Pollution - by DreamAddictive Lab (Carmen Gonzales and Leslie Garcia) - “is a data visualization about anthropogenic contaminants issued to our atmosphere. Through and interactive schematic model is represented the atmospheric space phenomenon as well as the chemical and physical events, representing a dynamic link between pollutants and their effects on the planet’s health and the people who inhabit it.

The structure of the display is composed of two navigation menus: the first explores the atmospheric layers and the second displays the anthropogenic residues, simulating behavior. The descriptive information of each segment appears in a dynamic way when the cursor detects its transit. We seek the user visualize the dimension of the productive layer of the atmosphere and the effects of human intervention in it …”
