The Olm

The olm or proteus is an aquatic salamander which is the only species in the genus Proteus of the family Proteidae and the only exclusively cave- dwelling chordate species found in Europe; the family's other extant genus is Necturus. In contrast to most amphibians, it is entirely aquatic, eating, sleeping, and breeding underwater. Living in caves found in the Dinaric Alps, it is endemic to the waters that flow underground through the extensive limestone bedrock of the karst of Central and Southeastern Europe in the basin of the Soča River near Trieste, Italy, southern Slovenia, southwestern Croatia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Introduced populations are found near Vicenza, Italy, and Kranj, Slovenia. It was first mentioned in 1689 by the local naturalist Valvasor in his Glory of the Duchy of Carniola, who reported that, after heavy rains, the olms were washed up from the underground waters and were believed by local people to be a cave dragon's offspring.

“Širom multi-instrumentalist Samo Kutin tells us this about the video: "Last summer I made static videos in the Soča, Nadiža, Dragonja (Slovenia) and Zrmanja (Croatia) rivers. I am fascinated by underwater life and the changes created by the river's flow. When we tried to combine the four different river videos with our song "Grazes, Wrinkles, Drifts into Sleep" we were surprised how well everything fit together."
