Angela Bulloch's Night Sky works rely on computer simulation algorithms to generate views of the universe from positions other than Earth. The concept of the Night Sky is based on a space travel simulation software called Celestia, which is used in planetariums. The lightning of the stars and planets is based on algorithms and commands that the artist programmed.
