AQUARIUM 1.0
1. What are they looking at? Introduce Dar Il Hanin, meditation garden, 1983 and then Habbo hotel’s picnic area. (a virtual world online made in 2000)
2. Why are these good examples? Richard England's building was a utopia for what architecture could be while Habbo is a utopia for internet worlding Both were made when things were forming or changing- Malta’s landscape and the internet Both were left abandoned and one was eventually demolished to make way for modern takes on both fields.
3. What I need from them? Is it obvious which is virtual & which is physical? If you were given the keys to an abandoned virtual space with no governing body to dictate what you may or may not do, what would you do here? Would you come to relax? To form a community, to create? Etc
4. If you could create an avatar, what would it look like? No constraints (This was to see if interest was more in the fantasy or realistic shapes)

AQUARIUM 2.0
The second iteration of Aquarium was situated in a window in De Buitenboel in Delfshaven, Rotterdam.
The aim of this exhibition is to place our explorations in a new environment outside of the typical art bubble to gain wider visibility.
For my contribution, I created a series of 3 posters that reflected key concepts in my research and linked them to spaces online that capture the essence of the quote. For example when talking about the remains of human habitation, the QR on the poster linked to Your World of Text, a space where a community can write together on a forum. These notes can also be deleted, written over etc. This made it seem like a snapshot of the life of the website.
