Cosa tratta questo video
Andrea Lamorte, a surfer and osteopath from Torino who relocated to Liguria to live near the sea, co-created a documentary called *Playground* with neighbor Luca Tixi, built around citizen science and outdoor sports.3:32 The film grew out of conversations during COVID lockdown and follows Lamorte's shift from pure surfing obsession to a broader engagement with the sea — diving, kayaking, fishing — and eventually data collection for scientific research.3:56 The citizen science concept at the film's core involves outdoor athletes gathering environmental data: surfers wearing ankle sensors to record coastal water temperature, divers uploading species photos to the app iNaturalist, and sailors collecting open-sea temperature and salinity readings.10:11 Scientists lack the field coverage to gather this data independently; distributed athletes fill that gap.8:47 Surf footage in *Playground* spans Senegal, the Maldives, Liguria, and a big-wave sequence at Nazaré, Portugal, shot by Giovanni.16:33 Audience screenings, including one at a Patagonia shop in Rome, consistently produce the same response: viewers ask for the app names and tool links so they can participate the following day.27:06 The film was accepted into the Ocean Film Festival, touring more than 15 Italian cities starting in Milan.23:14 The practical takeaway is that citizen science works only at scale — one surfer's temperature reading is useless; thousands of surfers' readings map an entire coastline.7:26
