We are here, we are there, we are nowhere. We are connected to everyone and we are connected to no one. The sea carries waves of all kinds. Water from continent to continent, from place to place. Rivers are the veins of the sea, creating a network of substance where life and history of the Earth are in constant motion. We live in the age of a global and networked digital world. A world in which we encounter space and place through virtual bodies. We can see and interact with everyone from anywhere at any time. It re-renders our experience with each other. Places become generic. We are generic. Everything is generic. Nothing is generic
Big thank you to Huib Koel, Esther Way, Javier, Sam Koel and David Koel for making this possible.
