'...To be we need to know the river holds the salmon and the ocean holds the whales as lightly as the body holds the soul in the present tense, in the present tense.' -Excerpt from Ursula K. Le Guin, Infinitive, 1999. Observations of cephalopod intelligence propose a form of image-making grounded in care, listening, intimacy, and reciprocity. A scanned image and encounter become a speculative act of multispecies co-creation. The glitched yellow and black photographs of the 375-million-year-old fossil squid position the Orthoceras fossil within the contemporary ecological crisis. The scanned images, relics of digital obsolescence, meet the ocean's ancient technologies of touch. Humans need reminding that they're part of the ecosystem with origins in the ocean. In the photographs, the tactile and the technological intertwine. Through these careful encounters, the photographs perform a tentacular idea of entanglement with a cephalopodic way of thinking and feeling.
