History has shown that new frontiers have always been driven by specialized companies like the East India Company in England, the Railway Company on the american frontier. To make ocean colonization a reality companies that develop the technology a step further from what "yacht industry" and oil/gas industry, and tourism industry is doing, right now,  is needed...

Project California: A Trip Around Beijing's Happy Magic Water Cube

Posted by Adastra on Wednesday, Dec 01, 2010

As of October 2010, astronomers have detected nearly 500 planets outside of the solar system, with hundreds more of these exoplanets awaiting confirmation through further technological investigations. While it is now known that a significant amount of sun-like stars have planetary systems and that billions of these exoplanets must exist in our galaxy, the fantasies of space colonization are grasping onto a tighter reality, as the technology rapidly progresses.

Our visions of these colonies have always largely been based on living within secured structures that replicate our earthly environment, and have inspired current directions in ‘green’ architecture and urban planning. Furthermore, the approaching consequences of global warming have expanded research into seasteading and under-water ocean colonization with the help of geothermal power and tidal energy. What was once the basis of cinematic sci-fi adventure is happening now.

While living in the overcrowded, overpolluted, Orwellian populace of Beijing, I am often reminded of what may potentially be lurking in the future of humanity. On one particular smoggy day in August, I decided to escape the external environment and embark upon an experiment with photographer Matthew Niederhauser to experience what celestial life inside a terraformed structure would be like.

The “Happy Magic Water Park” inside Beijing’s National Aquatics Center – also known as the Water Cube – provided the perfect pseudo-extraterrestrial base to conduct this abstract experiment somewhere between space and ocean colonization. In order to supplement duration and suspend our natural disbelief, we began the experiment with tabs of a psychotropic nature melting on our tongues.

Once our cognitive prosthetic was in effect, we spent the next seven macrocosmic hours transporting though tubes, purchasing refreshments by having our bracelets scanned, and watching ourselves on giant LCD screens all within the safe Weaire-Phelan geometric walls of the Water Cube.

For a while, we became molecules within the molecules, miniatures. If Disney World is a place for scaling up – where happy cartoon friends are anthropomorphed into giants and the castles and means of transportation are scaled down, the Water Cube was a zooming-down experience. We felt nearly invisible, subsumed by and part of an architecture built out of giant molecules.

Outside, the grey smog just beyond the white steel beams shuddered us with the coldness of a real space station. I studied the reflection of the LED screen in the pool for awhile. I imagined a really cool movie in which I staggered upon an old blonde bearded man with chlorine dreads in a hidden part of the water park. His skin incredibly wrinkly, he told me to escape now before it’s too late.

We imagined ourselves becoming him, growing old inside the Water Cube. Two blonde bearded geezers living off ice cream and chicken salad combo meals for the rest of our days. Laying out on the concrete beach we began to drift into even more exploratory realms: what was beyond the thick smog that surrounded the bubbles of our base?
