“We can only get so close, before we break apart.”
Starlings murmur in vast formations as a safety measure, security in numbers.
The patterns of their murmuration emerge due to the phenomenon known as the selfish herd effect. Each individual starling instinctively gravitates towards the flock, gradually compacting it further. This continuous movement persists until the flock reaches a point of dispersion, only to regroup and repeat the dance once more.
A reflection on the nature we once took for granted and the one we now inhabit. Our ongoing destruction, constantly repeated, and reflected in this very moment.
