Aquadisia Water Promotional Video, HDV, 2021, 4 minute loop

What if humans could cure climate change, or rather themselves, by drinking a magical water that creates an equal playing ground between all entities, human and nonhuman? And imagine if this magical water could be made by a new species of bioengineered oysters.

"Aquadisia" is an environmental science fiction that speculates on this new species and its ability to produce "Aquadisia" water. It plays on the myth of the oyster as an aphrodisiac to reimagine a more sensual interconnection with the cycle of life that could lead to a better handling of this ecological crisis.
