6/30: synthetic skins

 

synthetic skins

 

dolphin embryo digitized forestry

reproductive animation

identifying calls & bone

teeth, roots, jaw, skull

 

This is the mouth under my body plan

This is the muscle of the water

 

digital animal sounds

television of the interior

pixelated whistling for blood

a pathology, a tincture

 

oh digitized meat war

we’re coming for you
