Coral Rekindling Venus

Sunday, May 13th, 2012

Coral Rekindling Venus trailer.

We are excited to share that Coral Morphologic has contributed film and images to Coral Rekindling Venus, a full-dome digital planetarium motion picture directed by artist Lynette Wallworth. Coral Rekindling Venus explores the magnificence of the coral reef and its organisms in a high definition, 360 degree view with a score including Antony Hegarty and Christian Fennesz. The film premieres in twenty-four (24) planetariums around the world on June 5th, which coincides with the Transit of Venus. The movie’s title equates the significance of coral reefs in the 21st century to this historic astronomical event.

Squid @ 8,000′

Thursday, August 28th, 2008

This video was sent to us by a friend who works as a commercial oil rig diver in the Gulf of Mexico. He tells us that it was filmed at 7828 feet deep in the Mississippi Canyon trench on another project that his company is working on. I’m assuming that it was filmed with an unmanned submersible or remote camera. The creature appears to be a type of squid that has evolved incredibly long tentacles that hang downward, jellyfish-style. 8,000 feet deep is a seriously extreme environment, probably low in oxygen, zero light, and little water movement. It is incredible just how much we don’t know about the alien creatures that live at such depths. We’ll do out best to try to contact some cephalopod experts to see if we can get a positive ID…
