Watch the future arrive, slowly.
The films begin where the book began — with a painting of this coast, restored and gently set in motion. Then each one explains a single thing that is on its way here.

Paintings that learned to move.
The channel opens with the Amalfi Archive — quiet, optimistic explainers on AI and medicine, told through living paintings of the coast I live on.

The Programme
One painting. One arrival. No panic.
Each film is built the same way. Take one painting of this coast, restore it, let its sea move again — then use it to explain one thing arriving from the future: a machine, a medicine, an idea. The old frame makes the new thing legible. That is the whole trick.
No schedule theatre. Films take as long as they take; I would rather arrive late than arrive empty. The rule on tone is stricter: no panic, no hype. The future is a tide, not a wall — and tides can be read.
