Light not only illuminates but gives colour and shape to things. Macro lenses and a powerful white light source is used to magnify the intricate details on an ever-shifting soap bubble surface. A large light suspended over the bubble works to provide the ability to look at the bubble’s structure. The bubble acts like a swirling prism, splitting the white light into all the colours of the rainbow.

Phenomena fuses art and science together to explore naturally occurring patterns, and the fundamental forces of nature that create them, to take us on an ambitious, innovative, and psychedelic journey through the fabric of the universe. Filmmaker Josef Gatti recreates nine ‘phenomena’ to produce mesmerizing art films, which are then paired with an original music score by Kim Moyes from Australian dance music duo The Presets. #PhenomenaTV
