Exhibition: Weathercasting – A Week of Weather by
Join Jo Pollitt and Rumen Rachev at Spectrum, Edith Cowan University (Boorloo/Perth) for Weathercasting–Week of Weather.
As part of Weathercasting – A Week of Weather at Spectrum, this work presents real-time NOAA satellite images captured in Boorloo/Perth using an open-source automatic ground station, developed in collaboration with Open Weather’s A Year of Weather (2024).
These ghostly, shifting images are more than weather data—they are atmospheric inscriptions shaped by clouds, interference, and local conditions. In our attempts to automate reception, we often received only white noise. But rather than seeing this as failure, we frame it as a counter-cartography where knowledge is co-produced not despite breakdowns, but through and with them.
This ‘noise’ draws attention to the politics of reception, the precarity of infrastructures, and the possibilities of collective sensing when nothing seems to arrive. Here, weather is not just represented—it is encountered as a glitch, and as static that unsettles.
