Use Of Fish In Interactive Art Installations

I was busy researching for one of my assignments when I came across a gu named "Ken Rinaldo". He makes a variety of digital installations and in some of them he includes bettas.

When veiwing the last 2 "fish cars" popped into mind.

Just thought I'd pop 'em up and see what everybody thinks.

Wow this is fascinating stuff. I am glad there are people out there researching into the intelligence of fish. And what fun for the fish, being able to drive themselves around
This is the kind of interactive art that is really good, it serves a purpose as well as being great to watch.
