Sympathetic Fluids

Sympathetic Fluids is a film about communication methods. Sympathetic Fluids is a film about psychic snail sex. Sympathetic Fluids is a film about the internet. Using layered chroma key visualizations in combination with original and stock footage, the film relays a shadow play narrative of wireless connection, snail slime, and embodiment. Intended as a sort of "Ken Burns from the fifth dimension" documentary, Sympathetic Fluids aims to expose the distant past, present, and speculative future of both humanity and gastropod alike.
