Lecture by Dr. Joseph Dituri

USF Associate Professor Dr. Joseph Dituri, a.k.a. Dr. Deep Sea, who recently set a new world record by living underwater for 100 days, will speak about his unique research and experience submerged in a pressurized environment. Talk presented in conjunction with the GENERATOR: USFCAM exhibition SUPERFLEX: This Is The Tip Of The Iceberg.

SUPERFLEX: This Is The Tip Of The Iceberg explores a world where human life depends on coexistence with other species. Emerging from SUPERFLEX’s in-depth research into the deep sea, biodiversity, and the climate, the installation immerses viewers in two parallel and interconnected realms—a terrestrial space unsettled by rising water and a submerged space in the ocean’s depths—to signify the impacts and consequences of climate change, especially relevant to Florida and its coastal communities, and prompting the imagination of a future in which all lifeforms coexist as ecological equals.
