Tidal Naming

Water Resistance. Interesting Sonic Acts discussion on rivers and the struggles of people living near water (Ameneh Solati on the people of the marsh lands in south Iraq, Menna Agha on the Nubians along the Nile). Menna Agha mentions the 'naming' of the different sounds and rhythms that Nubians did when they talked about the water wheel, their central technology.
