Tele-Hydrology
Originally from: Pruned.
To do:
1) Choose from any of these hyper-surveilled storage reservoirs in the Pacific Northwest.
2) Excavate “teacup” basins in your nearest civic plaza(s). Because we seem to have a penchant for abusing Chicago’s Daley and Federal Plazas, we propose those two. Downscale the dimensions of the basins in proportion to the reservoirs selected in (1), and ring the interior with concentric steps-cum-seats.
3) Hack into the servers of the U.S. Department of the Interior where the data on water levels at the reservoirs is collected and parsed. (Or does the bureau have an API?)
4) Re-network the flow of data oozing out from these real-world reservoirs, so that not only will the numbers get rendered into info-porn, they will also determine the water levels of our simulant reservoirs.
