This holographic collage is of Maine marine life,

oil like paint spill, beach stones and

pseudoscopic dollar signs

When viewed from left to right the 'dollars signs' appear and disappear.

It has traveled from the Coast of Maine

to Cordova , Alaska where it was on display

for the first anniversary of the Alaskan Oil Spill

It speaks to the 'hidden costs' of such enviornmental disasters

for our world

Many imaging and monitoring systems are in use now

from the depths of the ocean to

the outer reaches of our planetary atmosphere to measure and make

visable these hidden costs to our planet

.........and why we should care.......
