9m 43s
An essay film about the materialization of the cloud. Almost every action on the Internet is connected to a cloud. The cloud is omnipresent, yet invisible. Everyone uses it, but hardly anyone talks about it. Although its infrastructure affects essential parts of global systems and our daily lives, its materiality and the associated use of resources, environmental impact and power structures remain hidden from most of us. terra rara functions as a visualization of the binary world, using dance as a means of communication. The essay film serves to sensitize to the challenges of the information age and raises awareness of the problems involved. The invisible becomes visible.
