Abstract

In Metamorphosis I am exploring on one of the great mysteries of life though the transformation of fly larvae. Maggots are more commonly associated with death and decay, but like caterpillars they undergo a stage of transition before emerging as exquisite insects. In this movie, I have visualised and animated virtual pupa data captured through the science of 3D Microcomputed X-ray Tomography led by forensic research at the Natural History Museum in London. This new work is a result of her collaborative relationship with key researchers in visualising 3D and 4D data captured with Micro-CT at the NHM Imaging and Analysis Centre. My residency at the NHM in 2015 was supported by an arts ACT project grant. Thank you to Dr Farah Ahmed, IAC & Dr Daniel Martin-Vega,DLS , NHM, London, Dr Jill Middleton ANU Department of Applied Mathematics, Canberra, Dr Ajay Limaye, ANU VizLab, National Computational Infrastructure, Canberra
