The prompt for this meditation is to utilizing natural events and reading the "natural" with referenace to electronic media, which draws my interests in making drawings generated from natural data.
Before asking computer and data to make drawings, I'm curious what the drawings look like from a natural human being, so I started drawing unconsciously.
To be honest, I don't exactly understand how the lines/colors/forms are generated from my mysterious human genes and systems.
But I decided to follow the mystery and ask computer to generate similar patterns.
Data sources and potential visual representations:
temparatures colors
humidity gradient value
wind intensity of the form (patterns are more scattered with larger wind data)
luminicity brightness
heart beat edges
sleep cycle circles
Artist Matthias Dörfelt's works are quite inspiring here. He produces computer generated drawings with a humanistic and individualistic touch. In some projects, he used natural data sunch as the scientific visualization of the flow to generate unique drawings.

To realize the concept, I find Shiffman's video about making doodles with neural networks and data might be helpful for going forward. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gX7U6WA7Ffk
