Additional Info
The title “1993", is the algorithm number which determined the formation of the ocean surface.
"We are at the mercy of the wind, currents and the crooked timbers of our nature. We curse the wheel that spins us this way and that decreeing that control and authorship are an illusion. Our understanding and existence is an island surrounded by a vast black ocean whose numinous depth both daunts and shimmers with possibilities.”
-Jeremy Blincoe, 2020
