ENDLESS FORMS MOST BEAUTIFUL

Short Film
My graduation film from RISD, created in 2019 and premiered in 2020. Through this experience I discovered my love of research and working with scientific material, as well as beginning to see the beauty in procedural technology for animation.Imagery from this film were generated using various forms of natural data. From the USGS, to MRI scans and petri dishes, to NASA imagery, all forms seen come from something real.


“Thus, from the war of nature, from famine and death, the most exalted object which we are capable of conceiving, namely, the production of the higher animals, directly follows. There is grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.

-Charles Darwin
