HeHe’s “Green Cloud”

Our friends over at PSFK hipped us to HeHe (Helen Evans and Heiki Hansen)‘s terrific installation from last year called Nuage Vert, or “Green Cloud” which raises awareness about energy consumption and polution.

PSFK writes:

“Every night for a week, the vapor emissions from the Salmisaari coal burning power plant were illuminated with a high power green laser animation. The laser drew an outline of the moving cloud onto the cloud itself, coloring it green.”

The project won the 2008 Ars Electronica Golden Nica.
