I have been taking video footage of wetlands, watersheds and waves for several years and worked with my watery archive to make Boiling Seas Acid Seas. I used high-key un-naturalistic colors to conflate ideas of beauty and peril, but did not alter the sound. In filming wetlands in the shadow of freeways in Southern California, I became interested in the divergence of image and sound and what the sound revealed about the location beyond the frame.
