Description: Based in London and low earth orbit, Open Weather is a project probing the noisy relationships between bodies, atmospheres and weather systems through experiments in amateur radio, open data and intersectional feminist approaches to environmental sensing.
Open-weather is a project by Sophie Dyer and Sasha Engelmann probing the noisy relationships between bodies, atmospheres and weather systems through experiments in amateur radio, open data and feminist tactics of sensing and séance.
Open-weather encompasses a series of how-to guides, critical frameworks and public workshops on the reception of satellite images using free or inexpensive amateur radio technologies. When possible, we work with open source software and hardware. We focus on access to technology and we strive for equity. In a feminist mode, we ask: who or what gains power from satellite imagery, radio technology and meteorological data?
Browse our archive of amateur radio-generated weather data , learn how to set up your own satellite ground station on our Public Lab wiki , or submit your own weather reading to the open-weather archive.
