Zakariah Martin-Taylor: G'day. I'm Zak. I'm the owner of Rising Sun FPV. Join us for 60 seconds while I take you on a journey of who Rising Sun FPV is and on our Ephemera 2025 piece called Tide Walkers, located at Site 22.

So that's Rising Sun FPV. We're a drone and 3D printing store. We do on-demand 3D printing, props, cosplay, engineering, brackets, designs, you name it. We also like to do big pieces as well at Frosty Mango and the big ball out at JBS MeatWorks and a couple of other pieces that we've done.

We saw Ephemera and decided that'd be an awesome project to do, so we applied. Our project is something called Tide Walkers. It's based on the fact that 40% of the population of hermit crabs use trash that's discarded.

What we decided to do was make these huge mutant crabs that are actually designed by an artist called Paul Braddock, located down in Sydney. He's gone through and designed up a couple of crabs and then we've also got a hermit crab that we've used a bucket and some mantis shrimp.

The idea is to sort of get trash from around Pallarenda and other beaches that we're going to make into jewellery with lights and such, which we've been doing over the last couple of weeks. The idea is to put them down on the beach coming out of the water, with trash there, and look like they're walking along The Strand.

So that's us and hopefully you'll be able to see a bit of footage with us making them and sanding. There's a lot of work that is involved. And we can't wait to display these in July. Thanks.
