94 Elements

[Syt]

A project with short films about the 94 naturally occurring elements (is that figure right?):

http://www.94elements.com/

There are 94 naturally occuring elements, from hydrogen to plutonium. Together they make up everything in the world.

94 Elements is a global filmmaking project, exploring our lives through the lens of the elements. Everything that surrounds us is made from these 94 building blocks, each with its own properties and personality. Our own bodies are mostly made from just 6 of them.

The stories of the elements are the stories of our own lives. They reveal the patterns of our economies and the state of our relationships with our natural resources. The project is in part a celebration of the art of documentary film and some of the best filmmakers working today are making new films for the project. There'll also be opportunities for talented new and emerging filmmakers and animators to pitch their own films, with the winners chosen by you - the project community.

The Mix Lab is an experimental feature we'll be developing further. Create compounds by combining individual elements and link them to your own films. Explore and discover other user's films by cracking the formulas to their compounds.

The next stage of the project will introduce interactive tools and visualisations around our use of our natural resources. We'll be working with designers, coders, economists and geologists to create a unique perspective on our relationships with our mineral resources.

Interesting.

Bah. I routinely encounter other elements.

So currently this is the 4 element project?
