Pranatamangsa AR is an augmented reality (AR) artwork exploring Indonesian farming calendars that are based on traditional knowledge of astronomy. By combining still and moving image through an interactive app, it reflects the unpredictability of natural occurrences in the context of climate change. This project was developed through an Asialink Arts residency at Common Room Networks Foundation in Bandung, Indonesia. This opportunity contributed to research into using AR to express temporality in the context of climate change, and helped form networks between artists and scientists at the ANU and Bosscha Observatory, Indonesia.
