Institute History
Description
A mesocosm is a tool used by researchers to bring a small part of the natural environment under controlled conditions in order to conduct experiments. In these two generative, animated works, Marina Zurkow algorhithmically combines a series of beautifully hand-drawn, environments to create mesocosms of two locations on earth—a sinkhole in Wink, Texas, and the moors of Northeast England. Over the course of the Festival, these generative, simulated ecosystems will evolve on the walls of New Frontier, opening up vistas that will constantly change, develop, and surprise.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
