Notes
Ocean Futurisms is a collaborative project between TBA-21, Radical Ocean Futures and Inferstudio. Through three original animated short films, the project invites audiences to step into three alternative, science-based futures for the ocean. Blending scientific forecasts with immersive storytelling, each of the three films rehearse questions for the future of ocean policy/governance through speculative scenario making and worldbuilding. Built within Unreal Engine, these films act as simulated visions of worlds that might yet be…for better, or for worse.
In Havsrå, a direct action activist organisation mobilises a global audience by live-streaming their operations as they attempt to disrupt illegal deep sea mining.
