I believe that the photograph itself holds enough ethnographic information to make us “think” about toxicity.  There is no need to add the data screen shot. Adding the screen shot of the “unseen” toxicity of the space only closes the amplitude of subjects that the photograph could lead us to. What becomes very interesting with this kind of access to information on toxicity is, to what extent are numbers important? What we mean by this is how much information about VOCs do people you interact with generally have? Do they need/want more numbers/data? Could this create a kind of “data-excess” or even “data-addiction”? Or is it, on the other hand, a very useful number that alerts them to potential risks they need to then mitigate? We are just interested in the relationship people create with the data that sensors like the “Atmotube” create.
