“Echo of 60 Echo” deals with the seeing of seeing. With the term “Echo”, seeing is understood as a back and forth ~ a regard and a reflection. „60 Echo“ is the name of an asteroid that orbits the sun at twice the distance of the earth. The asteroids shape is calculated using an inversion technique that takes into account different occultations caused by the angles between asteroid, sun and viewing position.¹

--------------------------------
¹ A research project from Prague by Josef Ďurech uses a mathematical inversion technique to calculate three-dimensional, convex objects based on multiple gaze data (light reflections). With this photometric technique asteroid shapes can be calculated. It can also be used to display the shape of “60 Echo”. The calculation is based on a light curve, which consists of a series of individual gaze-data-points. One gaze-data-point is composed of: reflected light intensity + time + Cartesian coordinate Earth + Cartesian coordinate Sun. Depending on the angle between the light falling on the asteroid and the gaze directed at it, the body reflects different brightnesses at different occultations.
