This is a public water fountain that spouts out entertaining prerecorded greetings and compliments when a water drinker sips from it (creating a circuit that is broken when the drinker pulls away). This goofy fountain brings so much joy to unsuspecting people in an otherwise fairly typical urban setting and creates collective memories shared by all that engage with the public fountain. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Meet the Drink Up Fountain\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/119862552?h=b0824667ff&amp;dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>the drink up fountain &ndash; a compilation of people&rsquo;s first reactions<\/figcaption><\/figure><p>This appreciation of joy, discovery, and sharing is found across Molmol&rsquo;s work.
