Earth Carillon by Matteo Palù

"Earth Carillon" is an interactive three-dimensional data visualization that explores the relationship between the human species and our planet's ecosystem over a decade. Our aim was to use modern digital technologies to make data accessible and captivating for a wide audience, even those without extensive data literacy.

This visualization focuses on two critical layers of our planet's ecosystem: the atmosphere and the land.
Drawing from the IPCC Report, the atmosphere layer has been broken down to represent the possible surpassing of CO2 levels beyond a critical threshold, highlighting the urgency of addressing climate change and its potential consequences on human civilization.
Meanwhile, the land layer is divided based on estimated biomass for plants and other species, shedding light on the delicate balance and distribution of life on Earth. Through visually representing this data, we underscore the significance of preserving biodiversity and nurturing a harmonious coexistence with nature.

The three-dimensional component of the visualization was designed to take full advantage of modern digital devices and technologies, such as smart home displays and augmented reality, in order to provide a cross-device experience that allow users to "live" next to their data and gain a deeper understanding of humanity's impact on the environment.
