WATERWHEEL is an online space where you can interact, share, perform and debate about water as a topic and metaphor, with people around the world or right next door! It is cost-free, accessible with just a click, and open to everyone of all ages. It fosters creativity, collaboration and inter-cultural-generational exchange

It includes:
WATERWHEEL, on your arrival on the website, rotates and ripples with the latest uploaded media about water: images, video, music, text, spreadsheets or sound. You can explore, comment or share your own media, stories, info, widening your pool of people.

the TAP, an online streaming venue, offers live performances, presentations or events. You can participate from any location, either as a crew member interacting with audiences using webcams, drawing tools and media, or as an audience through the chat facility.

FOUNTAINS are outcomes that well up from the project. They are mapped out on the website, so you can see what WATERWHEEL is powering. They can be initiated by anyone. A Fountain could be a book, a performance, an exhibition, a community project, a multi-generational exchange, a water sciences symposium – let your imagination steer the way!
