How it spread

Trace the origin

UTEC’s billboard demonstrated its engineering pitch by dispensing water. Before WIRED’s March coverage, It’s Nice That carried the installation into design media with film stills. Local utility and a portable demonstration gave the admissions story two audiences.

Documented milestone; not a measured attention peak. Dates use the stated precision; chart positions are date anchors.
