Currently, climate change, environmental decline, rights violations, volatile politics and conflict all suggest "HOT WATER". Water is a fundamental element for all beings on Earth. A symbol of life and a "common good" which should be available to all, water is quickly becoming a commodity to some, and often taken as hostage in conflicts to besiege and displace populations. Corporates, governments, and industries such as mining and tourism use it for their own short-term benefits, depriving people - especially Indigenous people and farmers - of their rights, causing pollution, threatening health and the environment, and compromising long-term water management. How can art, science, design, and activism reinstate the social, cultural and environmental value of water? How can we share the responsibility of water in a positive way? How can we all preserve the right of access to water? How can intergenerational knowledge-sharing get us out of "HOT WATER" end conflict and find peace? *********************************************************** WATERWHEEL, MAKE AND SHARE ABOUT WATER http://water-wheel.net a collaborative online venue for streaming, mixing and sharing media & ideas about water a free platform for the awareness, celebration, care & accessibility of water everywhere Waterwheel was initiated by Suzon Fuks and co-founded with Inkahoots and Igneous. *********************************************************** Balance-Unbalance [arts + sciences x technology = environment / responsibility] The 2015 conference, themed Water, Climate and Place, Reimagining Environments, will be hosted by Arizona State University, USA, March 27-29. ******************************************************************* James Cunningham Co-Artistic Director I G N E O U S 0407 437 351 +61 7 3255 8355 http://igneous.org.au -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
