Forces at Play is a data visualisation of the greatest rallies from the last three years of the Australian Open. Presented on an 11 meter by 5 meter LED wall, the work served as the front facade to Mastercard's Australian Open VIP suite.
The visualisation is driven by Hawk-Eye data, which tracks the trajectory of the ball and players during each tennis match. These coordinates are used to retell experiences of tennis as kinetic architectural forms.
These are the six rallies visualised in the work:
Rally 1
2017 Men's Final
R.Federer vs. R.Nadal
Rally 2
2017 Women's Final
S.Halep vs. C.Wozniacki
Rally 3
2018 Men's Final
R.Federer vs. M.Čilić
Rally 4
2018 Women's 3rd Round
M.Osaka vs. A.Barty
Rally 5
2016 Men's Final
N.Djokovic vs. A.Murray
Rally 6
2016 Women's Final
