dc.description.abstractIn an era where machines seemingly ''think'' like us, what truly sets us apart? Sensing the Invisible - Breathing Life into the Universe is an interactive installation that explores the dialogue between human sensory experiences-exemplified by the subtle act of breathing-and the responses of machine sensors. By employing a microphone, humidity sensor, and air pressure sensor, this artwork translates the invisible act of breathing into dynamic visual expressions that evoke celestial concepts, reminiscent of how Earth's most powerful sensors-telescopes-capture the cosmos. It seeks to understand how machine sensors communicate and interact with us across different frequencies and scales, extending beyond the limits of our own sensory systems. This paper describes the conceptual framework, design, technical implementation, and audience interactions that underscore a new language of human-machine communication.en_US
