Kepler 406B

An exoplanet is a planet that does not belong to the solar system, orbiting around a star other than the Sun. To date, more than 4000 exoplanets are known, always in continuous discovery and among which some are potentially habitable. The invisible and the intangible are themes that Man has always been trying to explore with all his intellectual depth, taking with him the limits of knowledge that distress him and relate him to his unknown boundaries. Kepler-406b investigates the relationship between creative technologies and human awareness, putting Man at the center as a witness to a multisensory artistic experiment. Roberto Fazio presents Kepler-406b, an interactive experience that, through a story generated by data, detects and describes the orbital parameters of the Super Earth, creating a completely generative dynamic system of particles. Each data is associated with a different behavior that will change the visual aspect of the Kepler-406b data-driven experience. Furthermore, using a computer vision algorithm that detects the optical flow of natural gestures, it is possible to make the viewer interact.
