Liam Gillick's process in building a functioning weather station for Fogo Island, Newfoundland as part of the World Weather Network. In 2022 Liam Gillick installed A Variability Quantifier (The Fogo Island Red Weather Station) on Fogo Island, Newfoundland. An artwork intended to function as an operational weather station, it gathers local weather data and is a place for education, reflection, and discussion. The site and work are open and people are encouraged to visit. In 2023 Liam Gillick returned to Fogo to make a documentary film about his work and interview islanders on all aspects of how the climate emergency affects their lives. This book is a record of the documentary and includes a fully illustrated account of the working process and the discussions that took place. Not the first work that he has completed to address the issue, with earlier projects in Paris, Japan and Australia, Gillick is engaged in representing the science of the climate crisis. His project is to collect data to feed into the global system. As with earlier projects, it is the maths and science that he attempts to elevate.

**Liam Gillick 在紐芬蘭的福戈島建立一個運作中的氣象站的過程,作為世界氣象網的一部分。**
在2022年,Liam Gillick 在紐芬蘭的福戈島安裝了一個變異量量化器(福戈島紅色氣象站)。這是一件旨在作為運作氣象站的藝術作品,收集當地的氣象數據,並成為教育、反思和討論的場所。該地點和作品對外開放,鼓勵人們前來參觀。在2023年,Liam Gillick 回到福戈島拍攝有關他工作的紀錄片,並訪問島上的居民,探討氣候緊急狀況如何影響他們的生活。這本書是該紀錄片的記錄,並包含了完整插圖的工作過程和進行的討論。這並不是他首次針對這一議題所完成的作品,早期在巴黎、日本和澳大利亞的項目中,Gillick 一直致力於表現氣候危機的科學。他的項目旨在收集數據,以供全球系統使用。與早期的項目一樣,他試圖提升數學和科學的重要性。
