What is O3

The Only One Ocean Corp is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that runs field programs on the Indonesian coast and now makes short films from a future ocean. Season One of Postcards from 2050 has begun.

Three fronts of work.

The films exist because the field work does. The nonprofit still runs programs on the Belitung coast; the studio makes what the water asks it to make.
