Monsun

The northeast monsoon, computed live. Forty thousand raindrops over a dark strait — none of it footage, all of it arithmetic. Move: that is wind. Click: that is lightning. The instrument keeps the score.

01 · The Station

An instrument pointed at weather

MONSUN is a storm observatory moored eleven kilometres off Tanjung Kling, in the deep channel of the Strait of Melaka. Crew of three. Season of one: the northeast monsoon, November through March, when the strait stands up and walks.

This page is the station's public instrument. Every raindrop you see is computed on your machine — a position, a fall speed, and a working relationship with your cursor. When lightning fires, the whole strait is relit by the same mathematics.

We publish what we measure. We measure what the sky does. The sky has been busy.

You hold the wind

  • WINDMove the pointer. Shear follows it — forty thousand drops lean away at once.
  • STRIKEClick anywhere on the sky. One bolt, light only; we keep the thunder for the crew.
  • INTENSITYThe dial runs drizzle to monsoon. Telemetry recomputes as you turn it.

Motion honors your system's reduced-motion setting: the storm holds still, the numbers remain true, the page stays whole.
