Join us for the last opportunity to see a screening of Aurélien Froment's 'Pulmo Marina' in our Lecture Theatre. To whet your appetite, here is the the film's entry from the Curiosity catalogue: 'No head, no brain, no bones; nothing to distinguish front from back. Jellyfish just don't fit the categories.' The unnamed narrator of Aurélian Froment's video 'Pulmo Marina' (2010) tells us certain facts - physiological, etymological, historical - all about the intricate, ever-changing creature that appears on the screen. But the jellyfish remains mysterious, suspended in its tank at the Monterey Bay Aquarium by artificial currents from above and below. The gorgeous blue that surrounds it is a reminder of Yves Klein's monochrome paintings, but also of the cyanotypes of the nineteenth-century naturalist Anna Atkins. Pulmo Marina was originally made to be shown in a cinema, before a main feature. Froment intends the video to resemble an advertisement, a trailer or a screensaver: 'it is about waiting for the main event.'
