Rich Pell - Codex Entropia

Codex Entropia imagines an ancient civilisation that develops delicate forms of animal computation, storing its knowledge within the contours of the land. Composed from century-old anaglyph images discovered in a basement, the short film is a subtle and visionary epic tale that lingers on the fragile bonds between nature, code, and belief.

Richard Pell is the founder and director of the Center for PostNatural History (Pittsburgh, USA), an organization dedicated to forms of life that have been intentionally altered through domestication, selective breeding, tissue culture, or genetic engineering. He previously co-founded the art and engineering group The Institute for Applied Autonomy.
