The Day the Earth  Caught Data unfolds in a series of several episodes that attempt to create  fictional narratives about the end of the world, using different tourist locations. The material is from online sources, using satellite images from Google Earth and  screenshots from Photosphere, developing in interactive installations. Constant surveillance practices on Earth’s surface, frequent use of mapping apps, as well as incessant sharing self-referential content online, compliments tourism’s already significant part in climate crisis. The work unfolds in a series of different ‘episodes’ attempting to draw parallels between a widely shared, seemingly uncomplicated reality and a troublesome fiction where the image-makers become storytellers of their own unsettling future. The title is a reference to post-apocalyptic film “The Day the Earth Caught Fire” (1961) and each episode suggests a dystopian scenario, aftermath of the intense human presence and the constant use of digital media that accompanies it, wondering if  the end of the world might come from our own visual representations of it.
