《Flow Im Fluss | Couch Place Alley | Silent Funny》（流动/在流）庆祝芝加哥和德国汉堡姐妹城市建立20周年。这种关系通过每个城市河流上的信息来代表。在芝加哥，芝加哥河有着被污染的历史，常常被当作小巷对待——芝加哥的城市网络和垃圾存储和收集地点。
值得注意的是，该项目位于芝加哥的第一条绿色小巷，使用了透水路面，以防止污水流入河流。
通过在街巷上排列的一系列对面的水雾屏幕投射抽象图案的动画，这个沉浸式装置让两座城市在其中相对。投影可视化了每条河流健康状况的科学数据抽象模式，如溶解氧水平、流速，甚至化学污染。虽然最初不明显，但关于可视化日期的信息已由NRDC提供给用户。
《Flow Im Fluss | Couch Place Alley | Silent Funny》永久展示在Silent Funny，并可通过预约观看。

FLOW / Im Fluss celebrated of the 20th anniversary of the sister cities Chicago and Hamburg, Germany. This relationship was represented through information on the river in each city. In Chicago, the river has a sorted history of pollution and is often treated like an alleyway—Chicago’s urban network and location for trash storage and collection.
Notably, the projected was sited in Chicago’s first green alleyway with a permeable pavement to keep polluted water from draining in the river.
Projecting animations of abstracted patterns derived from the scientific data on the health of each river on a series of facing water-mist screens that lined the alleyway, the two cities faced each other in this immersive installation. The projections visualized information such as dissolved oxygen levels, flow, and even chemical pollution in each of the river. While not initially obvious to the view, information about the visualized date was provided in handouts by the NRDC to inform the users.
FLOW is on permanent exhibit at Silent Funny and can be viewed by appointment.
