Academic Project

2022. Sep - 2023. May

This project aims at constructing a local network system without sabotaging the local ecosystem on a deserted island called Olohega that the Jennings family has privately owned since 1856. Olohega, or Swains Island in English, is a part of the United States National Marine Sanctuary system. It is also a valuable heritage for oceanography, geomorphology, and Polynesian culture study. The local network system, named the nerve, includes different connections between humans and nonhumans factors of Olohega.
