right. it's all a great big abstraction.
edit: this footage is obviously of one of the submarines that's being used to try to deal with the leak. the first 1:30 appears to be taken up with checking on something with the device that's to do the sealing, which has a strangely anthropomorphic end to it, something like a mannerist fountain. i find these accidental design choices interesting and distracting dont you? anyway there's an edit at 1:37 seconds and from there on the submarine is at one of the 3 leaks. since the footage is from an attempt to position something with reference to the leak and not of it you have to focus on the background of the images to process what you're seeing. it's an interesting experience to watch this because of the movement through and then maybe away from seeing this as an abstraction.
