Short Film

Oceanic patterns come in waves of chroma blurs and ultraviolet light, illuminating marine life in states of change.

Notes:
Washed-up pieces of bleached coral, urchins, oysters, and abalone enter tide pools offering evidence of acidification in the warming waters of the Pacific Ocean. Imagery and color were manipulated with sea glass and diachronic glass. The sound was recorded with a hydrophone and later run through an analog synthesizer and tape machine.
