Two networks of floating interactive tubes, installed at sites in the East River and the Bronx River, house a range of sensors below water and an array of lights above water. The sensors monitor water quality, presence of fish, and human interest in the river ecosystem. The lights respond to the sensors and create feedback loops between humans, fish, and their shared environment. An SMS interface allows citizens to text-message the fish, to receive real-time information about the river, and to contribute to a display of collective interest in the environment. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sentientcity.net\/exhibit\/?p=5\">*<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sentientcity.net\/exhibit\/?p=5\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1593 aligncenter\" title=\"AMPHIBIOUS_2-web\" src=\"http:\/\/hawkdog.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/AMPHIBIOUS_2-web.jpg\" alt=\"AMPHIBIOUS_2-web\" width=\"465\" height=\"192\" srcset=\"http:\/\/hawkdog.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/AMPHIBIOUS_2-web.jpg 465w, http:\/\/hawkdog.net\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/AMPHIBIOUS_2-web-300x123.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 465px) 100vw, 465px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><object width=\"400\" height=\"277\"><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=408474&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=1&amp;show_byline=1&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=&amp;fullscreen=1\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\/408474\">Fish Sensor<\/a> from <a href=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\/xdesignproject\">xDesign Project<\/a> on <a href=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\">Vimeo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">*<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Also &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Augmented_reality\">augmented reality<\/a> seems poised for a big takeoff &#8211; at least buzz-wise.
