When the father brought a speaker under the water and played his voice, the homo aquaticus suddenly came from the depth of the ocean. It was kept inside an aquarium for two weeks und transported to London. It took 4 months for the father to find a place to showcase the creature. After a long process of bureaucracy, Camberwell College of Arts has accepted to host the great aquarium for the homo aquaticus to be shown to the public.
