Now that I am looking, the discourse of diving seems to be everywhere…
Nintendo’s Endless Ocean, for instance, takes us to the “pristine waters of fictional Manoa Lai Island”.
- Diving signifies: discourses of tranquility, peace, undisturbed nature, health environment…
- Internal contradiction: divers disturb the very undisturbed nature they want to attain…
- Nevertheless: still very beautiful, highly enjoyable and thoroughly addictive!
Hot diving tip: Watercolours Dive Centre, Perhentian Islands, Malaysia.
