Underwater private network cables
At first glance, the drawing appears to be a crude sketch of a human brain—nervous, pulsing, alive. But a closer look reveals a different truth: these are the real-world underwater cables that transmit global internet data, linking continents through the ocean floor.
Names like Echo, Jupiter, Grace Hopper, and Curie trace not neurons, but corporate arteries—private infrastructure owned by tech giants, invisible yet vital. Their layout unintentionally mimics a cerebral cortex, forming a new digital nervous system, artificial yet organic in form.
Underwater Private Network Cables questions the anatomy of connection in the 21st century. Are we still the ones thinking—or have these cables begun to think for us? It’s no longer metaphor. It’s structure.
The internet is not in the cloud.
It’s underwater, wired, mapped—and increasingly privatized.
A brain not of flesh, but of fiber.
