On Sunday, December 2nd at 3pm, Colin will be giving a talk entitled ‘Miami’s Urban Corals’ at the Miami Science Museum for their 2nd annual Miami Underwater Festival. While many people might presume that North Biscayne Bay is too dirty to support much diversity of marinelife, Colin will present evidence quite to the contrary. Using underwater video and photographs, Colin will give attendees an up close look at the surprising diversity of corals that have pioneered their way inside the city limits of Miami by colonizing artificial seawalls and manmade debris.

Morphologic is featured in the February 2012 edition of Ocean Drive Magazine. Click here to check out the digital version.

The Miami New Times recently featured us in their Miami People 2011 issue. Check out the article here.

We are thrilled to share that Colin will be counted as a speaker at the TEDxMIA 2011 annual conference Between The Lines, September 13th at the New World Center on Miami Beach. He will expound the adaptational prowess of an extremely rare “hybrid” Caribbean stony coral (Acropora prolifera) he discovered while exploring the waters of Biscayne Bay and Government Cut.

Our good friends at Sweat Records will be celebrating their 5th birthday Saturday, April 17th with a free, all-ages block party (little festival) with LA’s No Age headlining a full day of awesome South Floridian music.
