WoodSwimmer
This short film by engineer and stop-motion animator Brett Foxwell, in
collaboration with musician and animator bedtimes, offers a mesmerizing look
into cross sections of a piece of raw wood as it goes through a milling machine.
The imagery produced captures the wood's unique growth rings, knots and
weathered spots. Due to the speed with which the images are animated, the grains
begin to flow in a vibrant dance that is both abstract and yet very real.
