This is an image from my “Invalid Data” series – it is an image of a storm system over Darwin in late January 2018; but it uses infrared light to render the colours in the image in a pretty crazy palette, where the clouds can be anything from yellow to orange to pink to blue.

This image has been shown in some pretty cool places – it was in the Alane Fineman Award in the Ballarat Foto Biennale, in the Head On Photo Festival, and it also showed in this huge church in Groningen, in the Netherlands, in the Noordelicht Festival.

What’s cool, is that what we are seeing is indeed “invalid data”; this is what geoscientists consider waste data. Because clouds cover over 60% of the Earth at any one time, the satellites used by geoscientists to monitor the surface of the Earth, take vast amounts of images where clouds obscure a clear view of the Earth. The clouds are then filtered out, pixel by pixel, with all that cloud data, the “invalid” data, being placed to the side of the data used for environmental science.

This image is what you get when you ask the Digital Earth Australia database to give you invalid data only.
