Here's the first project I had to make up in Professor MacLeod's "Appropriation: When Is It Appropriate?" seminar. It took several days to construct this & unfortunately I only have this close up - I don't have an overall picture. It was pretty big & it was only up for two days - less time than it took to make! It looks random but is actually laid out very precisely according to a system derived from overlaying the fibonnaci series with some structural elements from Hesse's "Glass Bead Game." Prof took one look at it & started talking about "Zen & the Art of Artlessness," but I don't really know what he meant.
