“Organism” is a microscopic narrative that examines the generation of entities that exhibit properties of life. More specifically, the microorganisms that are hidden and only exposed through magnification. This work explores the layering of everyday experiences through abstracted microbes, revealing interaction, transformation, permanence, and passing. The projected vignettes depict a morphology of narrative units that reference the structure of classic storytelling. Through the use of straight-ahead animation techniques and image compositing, tiny life forms are exposed and invented. The scientific-like images question the authenticity of the organism and allude to the underlying heartbeat of a projected society.
