Artist Statement:

The Snail on the Slope is a film, based on a novel by the Strugatsky brothers, that was generated with the computer programming language Processing. The story is set on an unknown planet where humans are trying to conquer the Forest. The Forest, which is a huge single organism, is constantly changing and fighting back. All scenes were created as abstractions and visualizations of the atmospheres in which all the action takes place.
