UPDATE: Bryn Marina is part of the "Liquid" episode of Adult Swim's Off the Air: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=skD7r0yWOG4 and an Official Selection of the Marfa Film Festival: http://www.marfafilmfestival.com/2015-program/

Bryn Marina was written and recorded by Ryan Hover, Karen Hover and Robert Schneider in Fort Collins, Colorado and Decatur, Georgia. Bryn Marina is a journey through time and space- a story of how the human intersects with the universe and the relationship they share.

Over a year in the making, the Bryn Marina video was filmed in time-lapse using still cameras and macro lenses to capture children's “grow in water” toys as they slowly sprouted and came to life.

Sound of Ceres explores the wonders of our living planet through the lenses of mid-century lounge music, 60s pop, 70s nature documentary soundtracks, a single 80s drum fill, 90s shoegaze, and modern sampling techniques.

Sound of Ceres | BRYN MARINA - Official Music Video

In a dreamy ode to classic 80s and 90s "[grow in water" toys](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1g2NzqKqFU), director [David Jude Harris](http://holycowboy.com/) shot a gorgeous, [Coral Morphologic](http://thecreatorsproject.vice.com/blog/coral-city-atlantis-for-sea-creatures)\-style timelapse of spongey sea creatures, insects, and human body parts for [Sound of Ceres](http://soundofceres.com/)' "[Bryn Marina](https://vimeo.com/125825516)" music video from their new album _Nostalgia for Infinity_. Harris, who has made videos for [Mac Miller](http://holycowboy.com/in-your-head/), [LOTF](http://holycowboy.com/lotf-music-video/), and more, shot each toy's achingly slow growth with a macro lense over periods of up to a week at a time. Nine months into shooting the footage, he sent the footage to Karen and Ryan Hover, two members of Sound of Ceres, hoping to work together. "I had fallen in love with their album [Ceres and Calypso in the Deep Time](https://candyclaws.bandcamp.com/album/ceres-calypso-in-the-deep-time) in summer of 2014 and they were my dream collaborators for the project," he writes in a blog post, citing their "nature-by-way-of-synthesizer dream pop" style as a perfect fit for the video. He was right.

Sound of Ceres is a new project from Karen and Ryan Hover of [Candy Claws](http://pitchfork.com/artists/28343-candy-claws/), Robert Schneider, Ben Phelan, and John Ferguson of [Apples in Stereo](http://pitchfork.com/artists/117-the-apples-in-stereo/), and [the Drums](http://pitchfork.com/artists/28199-the-drums/)' Jacob Graham. Pitchfork [released](http://pitchfork.com/news/59383-candy-claws-apples-in-stereo-the-drums-team-for-new-project-sound-of-ceres/) the video for "Bryn Marina" last week, and Harris published it on his Vimeo channel on Friday. Check out a few of our favorite moments below.
