解决： Water Drops Travel Through Bodies and Earth。
LASAI P&L: -9 (≃ -80 USD)
A friendly invite to become the stewards of water. LASAI (eng. Drops Travel) is an embodiment experiment that explores the theme of water intelligence from the micro lens. Animated poem(s) showcase a water drop traveling through all bodies and waters on Earth collecting wisdom. A drop here is a character that never dies, remembers everything, exists as an interactive library of all life's knowledge, an expression of water as intelligence that's worth protecting.
This project is an open project for collating mini stories with water drops metaphor.
The name "lasai" means "drops" in Lithuanian. It also has a funny sounding end of "ai" at the end which relates to water as intelligence theme. "Drops" are a metaphor for creativity: idea puzzles are like drops, when many drops come together, there is an ocean: a body of the idea. Same in this project submissions are "drops".
Recreated visuals to suit a dance collaboration - slides would be played as a video in the Zoom background when a dancer replicates a drop's journey through a body movement
I made a video showcasing how a poem reflects a pattern of a wave.
Rewrote the end (Draft 11) with a positive note of symbiosis ("we are water" metaphor), instead of judging humans for water pollution (Drafts 8 and 9).
I edited the final slides, so that when played as a video, they give an impression of water drop going down and back up through the screen.
Playing with new fonts and more slides for updated poem
Editing and rewriting a poem with words that speak water sounds ("draft seven")
6 writing drafts turned into a visual presentation.

项目更新：思考这首诗的第二部分 - 水滴与其他水滴共生后会发生什么（比喻人类的思想与其他人的思想在集体智慧中混合）以及它与海洋的关系。思考导致整体大于部分的混乱创造力之旅。探索的故事情节：湍流、混乱、随机性、非线性、海洋深度和海洋海岸线、分形。让我们看看如何将所有这些主题融入一首诗的第二部分！
Project update: Thinking about a part two of the poem - what happens after the drop is in symbiosis with other drops (metaphor of when human thoughts mix with other humans thoughts as in collective intelligence) and how it relates to the Ocean. Thinking about the chaotic journey of creativity that leads to the whole bigger than its parts. Story lines to explore: turbulence, chaos, randomness, nonlinearity, ocean depth and ocean's coastline, fractals. Let's see how all these themes can fit into a poem part II!
项目更新！
反思这个项目是关于什么的..所以目的是通过与水滴的有趣关系激发对水的好奇心作为微动作的隐喻（“每一滴清洁都很重要！”，“保持清洁”）并成为水管家，而不是因为水污染而评判人们），这无论如何都不会激发任何积极的行为。
我将诗的结尾留为“未完成”，以便其他合作者可以在此基础上继续创作水滴的故事。这样，一滴水的故事就变成了“永无止境的故事”，就像地球上的水一样。
一位合作者 - [malü] - 也创造了她的跌落故事！我们都将我们的片段提交给了 YOMO。
Project update!
Reflecting on what the project is about.. So the purpose is to spark curiosity about water through playful relationship with drops as a metaphor of micro action ("every drop of clean matters!", "keep it clean") and become a water steward, rather than judging people for water pollution) which doesn't inspire any positive behaviour anyway.
I left the end of the poem as "unfinished" so that other collaborators can build on that, and continue the story of the water drop. This way, the story of a drop becomes a "never-ending story", like water's life on Earth is.
One collaborator - [malü] - created her story of a drop too! And we both submitted our segments to YOMO.
所以我有我的草稿，这是我的学习！
Draft 是关于“一个水循环，好像我是一滴水”：玩一个叙事，好像我是一滴水，发出声音，当我从雨云到屋顶，到土壤，到地下水、房屋、人体、厕所和卫生系统、开阔水域、动物尸体、微塑料、人类盘子。
目的是展示水如何转化和联合地球上的所有物体（生命）。该信息旨在激发观众思考他们的购物习惯和他们的健康、水健康的影响。 （干净的淡水（可饮用的水）正在地球上消失。）
RE写作，我想找到合适的词来表达水的声音取决于它的形式（雨、水龙头等）。 RE 视觉呈现，也许包括口语，其中包含“啜饮”、“流行音乐（下雨）”等确切声音。
RE 概念，我想到将水循环与创造力过程联系起来......
So I have my draft one and here are my learnings!
Draft is about "A Water Cycle as if I’m a Water Drop": playing with a narrative as if I’m a water drop, making sounds, while I travel from the rainy cloud to the house roof, to the soil, to the underground waters, to the house, the human body, toilet and sanitation system, open waters, animal bodies, microplastics, human dish plate.
The purpose is to show how water transforms and unites all bodies (life) on earth. The message is to inspire spectators to think about the impact of their shopping habits and their health, the water health. (Clean freshwater (drinkable water) is disappearing on Earth.)
RE writing, I'd like to find the right words that express how water sounds depending on its form (rain, tap drop, etc). RE visual presentation, perhaps to include spoken word with those exact sounds of "slurp", "pop pop (rain)", etc.
RE concept, I had a thought to link water cycle with a creativity process...
