Art and science collide in a brilliant kaleidescope of thrilling ocean creatures, brought to you by WHOI's Ocean Twilight Zone Project and ARTECHOUSE in Washington, D.C.
What is the twilight zone, you ask? This poorly-studied underwater realm is located roughly 200-1,000 meters below the ocean surface, and is home to the greatest number of vertebrate animals on Earth! Each night, the greatest migration on the planet takes place when many of these twilight zone animals swim to the surface to feed– and retreat back to the safety of the depths when the sun comes up.
If you can't witness this thrilling audio-visual interactive in person, watch all the videos in this playlist for the next best thing!
