  • FAQs

    what is this?

    It's where whales (and other cetaceans) meeet waveforms. It's both and original and remix of visuals. It's an oceanic art movement.

    Out of our love for the ocean we wish to see captive cetaceans freed with a focus first on Kshamenk, the last captive orca in South America who has lead a very lonely life for over 30 years. It's time to change the paradigm that first fostered and still continues this exploitative industry.

    what is our intention?

    This open source art is meant to inspire and unify artists to create and share free visuals. We believe colorful imagery on our phones and especially large screens or projection mapping will bring amplified attention to captive cetaceans in critical circumstances. With the extra attention we hope laws will change, governements in response to the people act, and we find a group of new activists, funders, and visionaries who can bring about the needed infrastructure to facilitate their liberation.

    Wait, what's a cetacean?!?

    Via US.Whales.org, cetacean is the collective noun used to describe all 90 species of whales, dolphins and porpoises. Learn more about the term and the difference between whales, dolphins, and porpoises.

    the content is 100% free?

    Yes. But donations to keep our work going are always appreciated ;) Donate here.

    can i make art from this content?

    Yup. Just give appropriate credit (see below).

    are there any expectations?

    Yeah, kind of -don't be hollow. This art work is free for the purpose of raising awareness and demand for solutions that will lead to the future freedom of the captive cetaceans worldwide. Keep it anti-exploitative please. If it's used, please hashtag #cetadelic.

    How do i apply appropriate credit while using the work?

    Credit should be given to Cetadelic by naming and hashtagging Cetadelic and also the specific artist (known by the artist-named folders you pull from).

    can i make art for the cetadelic collective?

    Sure! Contact us. We like the idea of open-source but we have some rules. Although images can involve captive cetaceans, we ultimately are looking for the blend of that reality with the envisioning of a more hopeful (liberation-based) future.

    what else can i do?

    Follow Tidebreakers who do the daring drone work of capturing footage that has helped inspire this project, collective, and campaign. You can donate to this art fund to keep our work going, educate yourself about the complexities involved in securing cetacean freedom and donate or help us find the big money needed to create proper sanctuaries. You might also wish to support the Empty the Tanks movement.

    You can also make swag with our logo as a Cetadelic conversation starter. Contact us for more details.

    Cool name, what does it mean?

    Cetadelic is cetaceans meets psychedelic aesthetic. It's a call for collective imagination, collaboration, and action through art. You say it to mean multi-media art, music and VJ content, created with the aim to bring awareness to true ocean conservation, the demand for sane cetacean sanctuary infrastructure, and the future liberation of captive cetaceans worldwide. Say cetadelic and know it's a call to the wild.

    HOw do I access the folder link?

    Here it is! The folder link.
