Aeriform Archive

The Aeriform Archive is a project led by artist Hannah Foley, exploring the Bridgewater Jerry, a fog that forms, dissipates, and reforms due to meteorological and geological forces. 

This project invites participants to document and share their encounters with the fog, contributing to a collective archive.

Overview

A living web experiance

When tasked with designing an interactive space for our client, we faced a number of creative challenges. Their vision was ambitious. A place where users wouldn’t just browse but dive into an endless canvas of discovery, with each orb containing carefully curated sounds collected over the years.

After experimenting with cutting-edge ideas like spatial audio and 3D elements, we ultimately refined the approach. The result is a streamlined, immersive experience, that still captures the essence of exploration, perfectly balancing creativity with simplicity.
