A coastal sand dune is transformed and reshaped into digital ether. The film focuses closely on sand as a material, which is composed of silica, the mineral that is a primary ingredient in manufacturing silicon chips, lenses, binoculars, microscopes and mirrors - devices that extend our vision. The film uses these devices to visually capture the sand dune and evoke the transformation of materials that goes into their production. Through 16mm analog techniques, elemental forces of a sand dune merge with the physical properties of the celluloid. Dune 'flow attachment' is the point on the downwind side of a sand dune where the wind, which has been separated from the dune crest, re-establishes contact with the dune surface. This aerodynamic phenomenon is a critical component of how dunes grow and migrate.
