| To
me, the coral reefs and for that matter, the undersea world is
beautiful and mysitfying. I don't believe that i am the only one
who feels this way. Jules Verne thought wonderous things of the
under water world and sea farers have described for time immemorial
all manner of sea monsters of unimaginable size. Stories have
even been told of whales being found with giant suction cup marks
on them from engaging a deep sea beast. There are also creatures
who can live by the thermal vents deep within the sea where no
light penetrates. These animals are often eery phosflourescent
colors that dazzle the eyes.
My
point is that there is an entire undersea world that is utterly
magical. And because we do not experience it, except for in school
books, it seems distant and inconsequestial. The video Amazonite
is about the interconnectedness of us all. Rainforest to reef,
the earth is me. Though the rainforest and the coral may seem
so distant and irrelevant, they are infact a part of us that we
are affecting everyday by our actions. |
