What are collapsing ancient landscapes trying to tell us? What keys might ancestral memories hold for our survival? What could  we learn from the wind  if we listened with intent? The three films in You Thought the World Was Yours When You Were Young but Now You Know it’s Disappearing collectively refuse a capital-driven, apocalyptic mode of being and offer alternative ways of relating with our world, from the woodlands of north Florida to the forests of Puerto Rico to the Atacama Desert in Chile.

An anti-landscape performing its own impossible, inevitable annihilation. The north Florida woodlands fractured by strobe light, offering glimpses of its vitality and fragility. Over time, these flickering slices of the natural world become more corrupted and illegible, decaying into garbled datastreams. As the forest fails to preserve itself, it demands that we re-calibrate our vision.
