whorl

Using weather data from the Dorval supecomputer facility of the Informations Branch of the Canadian Meteorological Centre, "whorl" weather features are mapped from various web indexes of cultural activity, population and related demographies, etc. onto virtual earths.  Web index data sources generate planetary weather events depending on their level of activity, volatility and other periodicities.  The "whorl" weather events propagate on revolving virtual globes; each unique and real time responsive globe of weather activity will be specific both in its relative web indexes and in its mapped locations of the weather events.  Intense weather patterns may result from extreme data events, and hurricanes may be visible over financial centres from great market volatility.  Each "whorl" globe will be visible on the world wide web.

Planetary modelling presents a concise yet transparent gauge for global events and effects.  More frequently, satellite data shows the visual lacunae present over parts of the earth.  Such broadly effecting visual information well stages the reactions of markets, industrial stakes, cultural diaspora and other hierarchies.  How the inverse may be mapped, that actions on earth may conjure weather and make further visible the centres of flux and transition, summons still greater seasons of change.
