Invisible Light

They say that if you put your ear to the back of his neck, you can hear the Virgin talk.

Our imagination is equally confounded, said the 18th-century Swiss naturalist Charles Bonnet (best known for his work on visual hallucinations), by the infinitely great as by the infinitely small. Confounding, too, can be the instruments and empirical mechanisms we have to gauge the immensity, parti

Outside of the Petri Dish, the "algae-graphy" acquire its own life et becomes an ideal environments for manifestations of the living (contanimation, degradation). Ephemeral cultures with no sense of control, grabbing the image of an critical and uncertain era, the algae-graphies retrace the impossib

Conceptual visualisations based on Eric Betzig's Nobel-winning work for the development of super-resolved fluorescence microscopy. This tomographic technique uses light-sheets to provide a highly detailed, three-dimensional, animated view of the microscopic world revealing a groundbreaking picture o

A documentary about the Irish scientist Charlotte Keppel who in the 1930s invented a machine that could see into the past.

The early avant-garde filmmakers believed that the cinema had the function of a machine, made to generate pure feelings. The main part of this "machine" was the celluloid, which has disappeared along with the flickering ghosts inside of it.

Seeing his faithful friend quietly losing the battle against the disease, Jean- Pierre doesn't let things go. Knowing that his friend is a true believer of the Catholic religion, he decides to invent an appearance of the Virgin Mary.

The following historical observation is the starting point for this film: The estimates of the speed of light through history decrease with time. The images in the film evoke experiments behind the estimates on the speed of light.

With the publication of the Ophthalmographia in 1632, the Amsterdam physician Vopiscus Fortunatus Plempius sheds new light on the age-old question of how seeing works. His answer is an invitation to experiment: Enter with me into a darkened room and prepare the eye of a freshly slaughtered cow. He e

Crops are the basis of our diet. Good harvests are therefore crucial to the survival of us all. In order for a rich harvest to grow, plants must flower at the right time. But how does a plant know when it should bloom? Only those who understand these mechanisms in plants can get involved in the deve

Being human is a fragile and fleeting opportunity to experience life and the universe around us. In the face of overwhelming darkness all we can do is to rely on and find solace in one another. This film is based on authentic emergency calls and radio traffic.

Corals get their energy in part from microscopic symbiotic algae that live inside their cells. These algae, called zooxanthellae, produce sugar and other nutrients through photosynthesis. When ocean temperatures rise beyond a certain threshold, the symbiont's photosynthetic machinery may be damaged

A 20 minute documentary which details the experience of Lee, now in his 80s, when the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima in 1945. The film is told through Lee's eyes as he remembers where he was, and how it affected him afterwards. The film uses archive footage against modern day shots of Hiroshima to

A vision of the four layers of the (in)visible membrane: already existing skin bacteria, a communication layer, a slime mould and plants, and how theoretically this clothing could transmute into different forms, colours and functions related to environmental changes.
