Estructuras microscópicas del hielo de las que depende la posibilidad de vida en la tierra. Se trata de una red de túbulos y globos llenos de aire, que disminuyen la densidad y peso del agua al solidificarse. Es una cualidad singular del agua; que a diferencia de los demás líquidos al congelarse pesa menos y flota en la superficie de agua líquida. Esta cualidad es fundamental para que las corrientes oceánicas equilibren la temperatura en nuestro planeta haciéndolo habitable. He filmado el proceso de congelación y descongelación gracias a un cubo frigorífico que diseñé para el microscopio. El proceso lo sigo y grabo en un ordenador.

Microscopic structure of ice on which depends the possibility of life on earth. This is network of tubes and balloons filled with air, which decrease the density and weight of the water when it solidifies. It is a singular quality of the water that unlike other frozen liquids lighter and floats on the surface of liquid water. This quality is essential for balanced ocean currents temperature making our planet habitable. I filmed the process of freezing and thawing due to a cube fridge that I designed for the microscope. I follow the process on a computer.
