Imagine a giant landscape installation that only exists on your smartphone. Nancy Baker Cahill’s augmented reality (AR) work Revolutions,  which is the air, mechanical garden. This animation can only be viewed through the free smartphone app created by Baker Cahill, and only if the viewer is standing at the specific location she set up (in this case, Palm Springs Wind Farm).

Baker Cahill has another augmented reality work, Margin of Error, located more than 40 miles apart from Revolution,which depicts a vortex that whizzes through Salton Sea with organic matter rotating, which might be shells, sand, salt crystals or fishbones. While Margin of Error is a tribute to the beauty and toxicity of Salton Sea and the vulnerability of its ecosystem, Revolution draws attention to our energy needs. These works both give voice to environmental issues, land art and technology directly.
