Crude Data

The installation Crude Data translates the virtual real time value of one barrel of crude oil (Brent) in USD as traded in the International Commodity Exchange Future Market in London into an electromechanical 7-segment display. The Internet of Things-Machine contrasts the difference of the raw (crude) material and the abstracted derivatives, acting as an encoder of the pulse of the global economic machine.
