fish, like birds
i had a dream the other day (with my head perched on chapter 26 of my developmental biology text book) that i was exploring a densely wooded country. it was dark, maybe there was a city, maybe i was with friends, maybe i was alone. i came upon a lake, and there were people everywhere, diving in, and they were all crying out that i should follow suite.
so i did, fully clothed: i dove, and the water didn't shock me, it cradled me, and as i fell deeper and deeper into the water it grew brighter and brighter until i came upon an under water city, and as i was walking about, i nearly forgot i was in a lake but for the little fish swimming about me, like birds or butterflies.
i came upon these floating fish on the design boom website this afternoon - a group of korean designers presented the fish, representative of dutch herring, for experimentdesign amsterdam 2008.
lovely, lovely to see a dream incarnate.
