Ocean Optimism: 3-D Plankton Theater

Wear plankton 3-D glasses and be wowed by a world where the microscopic is magnified to three-dimensional glory captured by Scripps Institution of Oceanography scientist, Jules Jaffe.

Inspired by the world’s premier Ocean Sciences Meeting in February 2020, Seaport Village and the Port of San Diego have invited artist Jessica Ling Findley to produce a series of immersive art experiences to bring science to life through art at Seaport Village from December 2019 to February 2020. As ocean vitality becomes more critical with the changing climate, these works, produced with input and data from scientists at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography and Birch Aquarium, explore how stories of Ocean Optimism can inspire us all to work together for a sustainable future. These immersive experiences invite audiences to think about the future of our oceans in new and creative ways.
