Escaping lockdown in the Coral City
Colin Foord and Jared McKay are childhood friends with a passion for coral life. They created Coral City Camera, the world鈥檚 first webcam streaming live from Miami鈥檚 urban reef.
Colin Foord and Jared McKay are childhood best friends with a passion for aquatic life. As a kid Colin developed a strong love of sea life and would construct his own aquariums. Later, when Jay was suffering from depression, Colin would send him the equipment needed to build his own reef aquarium in his living room. Eventually they installed the Coral City Camera, a webcam streaming live from an urban coral reef in Miami which since lockdown has attracted thousands of dedicated daily viewers like Hollie Withers, searching for connection and a community.
