Water economies/ecologies (Pamphlet #30 project)

[Note: This project is a part of an Infranet Lab/Lateral Office publication called "Pamphlet #30 - Coupling: Strategies for Infrastructural Opportunism". Work done for Lateral Office.]

The Salton Sea. A terminal lake created when the waters of a broken dam along the Colorado River flowed unchecked for two years into this valley, it now serves as the end-station runoff for agriculture operations around the Salton. An ecologically unstable water body that has scared off vacationers and residents alike for more than a couple of decades, this project seeks to deploy a series of soft infrastructures that will help restore the water in the Salton to a reasonable level while providing space for alternative economies and ecologies to develop.
