The final component for the Hemlock Hospice art-based interpretive trail was a 19-minute documentary produced in the summer of 2018. This documentary served as the capstone communication project for the year-long science-communication initiative. The video production can be characterized as equal parts nature documentary, design-impact case study, and art archive film, all of which was amplified by an original science fiction inspired score by composer Casey Keenan.
Collaborators: David Basler, David Buckley Borden, Devin Chaganis, Aaron Ellison, Casey Keenan, and Faizal Westcott.
