Deep, deep world

It turns out that 21-year-old creative coder Neal Agarwal's latest project, Deep Sea, can take you to the bottom of the ocean without having to swim - by fixing your gaze to the screen. The Deep Sea is a website that lets you discover the animal and plant life that live in the ocean at varying depths. So, while you can spot the polar bear at 29 metres, the green sea turtle can be found at 170 metres. The website extends to over 10,000 metres. Check it out to know what's right at the bottom.

Attend a college festival themed on decoding media violence to better understand how news reports can affect your way of thinking.
