A REAL-LlFE SClENCE-FICTlON MOVlE EXPLORING A WORLD CREEPlNG RlGHT BENEATH OUR FEET, WHERE TIME AND SPACE ARE MAGNIFIED AND lNTELLIGENCE REDEFlNED.
The Creeping Garden is an award-winning feature-length creative documentary exploring the extraordinary world of the plasmodial slime mouId as revealed through the eyes of the fringe scientists, mycologists and artists who work with them.
Long overlooked by bioIogists, in recent years this curious organism has become the focus of much research in such areas as bioIogicaI-inspired design, emergence theory, unconventional computing and robot engineering, much of which borders on the worId of science fiction. The fiIm transports us from the Iaboratory into its naturaI habitat, depicting these otherworIdly Iifeforms using startIing time-Iapse macro-cinematography to reveaI hidden facets of the worId around us.
Co-directed by the artist film-maker Tim Grabham (KanZeOn) and author and film critic Jasper Sharp, with an originaI soundtrack composed by celebrated musician and producer Jim O Rourke (Sonic Youth, GrizzIy Man), The Creeping Garden is a unique exploration into a hitherto untapped subject matter, immersing the viewer within the worlds of the observers and the observed.
