The Utopian Universal Series is an investigation into the many fundamental, uncompromisable priorities required for the sustained planetary, plant, animal, and human life within any global Utopian movement. These 'books' are speculative living documents which do not pretend to offer closed or complete answers, instead aiming to pose formal, visual, textual, and conceptual questions.

Water is an element, environment, divider, source, substance, and a universal requirement for life on Earth. We define water, like all elements, by our experiences with it. Water is even given metaphorical embodiment in our language: body of water, mouth of the river, arm of the sea, and river arteries. Just as we use bodies and ideologies to divide humanity, we also use rivers, seas, or oceans to define boundaries between states, nations, and peoples - even if the water contained within these bodies is utilized by all sides equally.
