Water as technology.
Lo—TEK Water (A Field Guide for TEKnology) by @juliawatsondesign, a book I recently completed together with @pierawolf and @linamueller_illustration, now available worldwide. 🩵
This field guide explores ancestral water technologies across ecosystems, from coastal reefs to freshwater wetlands, through Traditional Ecological Knowledge and contemporary TEK-infused systems.
Developed through years of research and collaboration with Indigenous experts, the book shows how communities have long designed water systems that work with natural cycles rather than against them.
