The Polychron Library


Part of our multimodal project Stories Written be the Sky, the Polychron library is a narrative and temporal experiment. Screened at Madeleine Gallery August 2025, the film is narrated by a fish ootolith, that meanders between landscapes of Taiwan and the Arctic. A meditation on timescales and temporal ideologies, the experience invites viewers to explore this temporal archive. 

Supported by the MaxQ Innovation Grant, and the generosity of collaborators and mentors.
