Dan Kainen is an artist, designer, and inventor living in New York City. He is the creator of the bestselling Photicular books, including Safari, Ocean, Dinosaur, Jungle, Polar, Outback, Birds, Bugs, America and Babies. While working with some of the pioneers of holography, Dan created a special spotlight that was used by Soho’s Museum of Holography to light holograms. The related field of holography led to Dan’s interest in lenticular art and, in turn, after nearly a decade of research and experimentation, to the creation of his “Motion Viewer,” his third patent in that field and the inspiration for Safari and the other Photicular books.

Oceans make up almost three-quarters of our planet. We are humbled by their vastness and power, and the countless varieties of creatures that live in them. There is wonder and magic in watching even the most recognizable species as they float, swim, or glide weightlessly through their element. The awe of watching the natural world up close is what I hoped to capture in Ocean. Photicular images, with their paradoxical ability to stitch interleaved images together, actually accentuate rhythmic motion—the perfect medium in which to enter this parallel underwater universe.
