Nowness - COLLAPSE | BODY | FORM

Animation

This is some text inside of a div block.

Motion capture and 3D converge to tell the story of a star at the beginning of universe.

Set in the Karst forest of Arecibo, Puerto Rico– where the first attempt to communicate with extraterrestrial life occcured– this short film is a choreographed reprensation of the M13 star cluster's phases of creation.

Breaking from traditional scientific imagery the film assigns gas as a body in motion, time as fabric, gravity as a cave, and space as a forest.

You can view the full film on Nowness's site here.
