2/ Lines of Flight is a meditation on my experiences as a glider pilot, reading them in terms of a negotiation with the more-than-human dimensions of the atmosphere, and so transforming the practicalities of gliding flight as a critically insightful practice - one that is rarely remarked on.

3/ Lines of Flight consists of a 3D visualisation of my tracked gliding flights over the course of 2023/24. The data is used to drive a form of "Aeolian AI", in which the flight path vectors are used as queries in a word2vec model of several early aeronautical texts - a mode of generative poetry.
