Nature in the Dark Screening #Melbourne #cute #creatures #geekgirl
Enter a world where art and science converge and where the comfortingly familiar is tantalizingly foreign. In a joint venture, conservationists and artists use the same photographic material gathered to profile mammals’ response to fire (or the absence of fire) to very different ends. Animals from Wombat State Forest and Bunyip State Park were ‘caught on camera’ as part of a scientific data collection project. Nature in the Dark invited 10 artists to respond and presents their creative adaptations, remixes and interventions of the scientific footage of native bush animals’ activities at night.
