An Atlas of Water. Water Uses, Activities, Systems, Mythologies, Issues, Cameos. Would you like to know more?

So.. Bio Shock.. a classic Game and I do kind of wish I get it to play on my Android Phone. It is an atmospheric game and is perfect for citing the imaginative “Alternate Timeline from the 1920s”. I have never played any of the sequel games. I imagine they are good yet I also imagined they may be quite annoying. -anyway… “boy those americans seem to be bioshocking the shit out of their food crops and systems don’t they? damn near saturated whats left of their ground water too..”

Water has been a lonf time focus in the visual arts it jas always had a sort of magic to it, even in ancient cultures. Even today, science experiments with water in ways that reveal a desire to retirn to the mythos, to magic.
December 2022
An interesting Project despite a most Controversial Figure. Personally, my thoughts on libya and Qadaffi is always summed up in comedy.. actually its always summed up by the second clip in this Month’s Water Works.
November 2022
Why are water some areas drying and others flooding? Why is water rise outpacing so much of our atmospheric and polar scientist predictions? Well, I call my Thesis “Hidden Lakes”
From Wetlands to Farmland… believe it or not, swamp land is important to have.
Water Levels in Video Games… Can We learn something about the Human Sub-Conscious here? Video Games and Artistic Expression….
Examining water through video games? why not…
It’s rare that I post an Entire Documentary… Yet while many focus on Emmissions and Carbon (and its right to bring those into the debates) Water is important and not just because of thirst… It is the most widly utilized substance on the planet from industry to farming to the oil industry..
This opens with a Residential Water Evaluation… Gee.. pretty sad.. I mean with all the California Ag and Fracking, I just don’t see the point of Water Analysts walking with clip boards into residential communities to evaluate Personal Water Consumption… However, going to Ag and Commercial Enterprises and Re-Evaluating what Agricultural Enterprises to keep and what to send into other states.. now that might actually make the Real Difference for California.
All the Places that Water Shall Go…
When I watch programs like this, I like to see the people, how they interact, how they speak, the land around them, the artifacts (tools, art, machines, technology, clothes). Its good to look at old programs in the same way that archaeologists look at an excavation site.
Normally, I like to post something neat and uplifting in the water works section.. but lets remember, water is a huge part of nuclear energy… this docu is interesting though… again, lots of people, lots of clothing, lots of old cars, lots of pre slang language… in some ways, this has all the bits that archeologists love to think, daydream about, and figure out.. in an odd way, I submit this ethnographic material.
The Grocery Store as a Pet Store… Call this the Dinner Rescue.. What a Great Idea. When I get a place of my Own…
Finding a Pet at the Grocery Store… Quite a find. This is as satisfying as a documentary on Nat Geo.
So, How about we take a breather… and talk a little bit about Drought and just how much water Parks like these are using… Any thoughts?
One person’s drink… well, I guess that’s just part of another person’s ride..
Finding Great things in some of the boring places on the web..
It’s important to view and listen to non mainstream sources.. even some of the most mundane and boring spaces.. Although I would not Say Vietnam is a mundane or boring space.. They were a very important Culture for inspiring my counterpoint to so many of the “American” empire systems. unfortunately, there are some of the American Groups in use there are such as Dupont, Coca Cola.. probably many more.
So, NASA has been a Partner with California Department of Water since 2011? Ah, well “This Is Fine” I’m sure the problem will be solved by 2017..
So, there’s this dip shit who works for NASA.. oh gee how many stories.. he must have. Especially now that he’s a ‘climate activist’ … beleive me, he doesn’t even deserve a true quotation mark..
Water… oh the Places you will go…
At water works, I tend to post environmental questions or environmentally influenced clips.. Today is a bit of a question.. any thoughts about the Environmental Impact of Snow Making?
Technology Firms investing in “Water Protection Programs”… I wonder if they are really so …. wait a minute… how much water do they need to operate?
The Water we Filter to make the Chips that Run our Technology.. how much water? where do we get water? How much energy? lots of questions..
This is a Great Program and a Great Resource for two main Points; Restoring an Old River, and Re-Evaluating Transit Systems of Large Cities.

A valuable look at restoring a City and it’s Natural Water System and its Natural Cooling Effects.
Do It Yourself Homesteading… This is how to Challenge our understandings of Agriculture and Location Theories of Operation.
Don’t really need large scale farms so much…
So much to do with Water… How Many waste Water plants are using the Best Available Science?
What happens to our refuse water? Now, another interesting thought.. how about all the residual RXs and cleaning residues that enter our waste water zones?
