El proyecto Bowtie Interconectado cuenta con un sitio web educativo interactivo con animaciones digitales de plantas y animaciones de títeres stop motion de animales que pueden tener un hogar en la Demostración del Humedal de Bowtie. Esta pieza tiene como objetivo educar a los espectadores sobre el humedal al mismo tiempo que destaca la interconexión de la flora, la fauna, el agua y la tierra.

Los artistas crearon un folleto impreso educativo complementario para acompañar el sitio web.
