Los Angeles Dances of Water and Power
011668 appears as an iteration of the Japanese kappa. With a sense of humor and a taste for flesh, the amphibious reptiloid has been described as both a water sprite and river scourge. Unearthed from the carcass of Owens Lake by Mulholland himself, 011668 was held in captivity until 1924 when a group of California Water Activists released the creature into the Los Angeles Aqueduct. Upon arrival 272 kilometers south, 011668 remained an urban legend until 1938, when 115 people were killed in a “major flood.” The City of Los Angeles swiftly requested the support of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to contain the creature within a concrete hex, where it remains today. 011668 appears as an iteration of the Japanese kappa.
