Albert CardonaManta ray egg, dry, on a sandy beach.
Florian LaunetteIn the Maldives, crowds don’t look like ours.
They move without noise, without leaders, without hesitation.
A school folds and unfolds like a single thought.
Two turtles cross paths, each following an ancient, invisible map.
And then the manta rays — vast, weightless — drifting through the blue like slow-moving wings of the ocean.
What we witness here is not just beauty.
It’s coordination. Survival. Collective intelligence at work.
Humans are the anomaly in this system — brief, tolerated, almost irrelevant.
These images are part of Animal Crowds, a documentary series for ARTE, produced by Bonne Pioche.
Because to understand these gatherings is, perhaps, to better understand our own.

melsaywhatSo, been working on a 3D printing side gig. I will be working on finalizing setup for separate social media over the next few days, but here's a preview of what's listed in the shop.

These animals are from my 100-day journey to swap scrolling for sketching: https://www.joyousjoyness.com/pages/detox-doodles
My favorites are the penguins and piggies!

Every so often I get the itch to do some #pixelArt. I like the dynamic angle at work here.

✨ Sketching instead of Scrolling! ✨
Gentle nudge to remind you to do something other than scrolling, anything is better!
