In Valencia County, New Mexico, in the llano southeast of Los Lunas, there is a solar still with instructions for reclaiming water from the air, waiting for you, my friend

The pop-up drive-in, powered by a car, in the pitch black desert of Moriarty, NM, USA. On the right you can see the lights of cars on I-40, historic Route 66...
This was astounding!
Both our projects this year were truly stellar. It was an honor to be a part of Nova and Jessica's installs.

Goodbye Nova

Penultimate airport trip of EbM 02012.
In four hours Amy and I drop off our rental and board our respective flights.
Goodbye ISEA.
Albuquerque, we will return in a year with Scott Oliver and Travis Somerville to install permanent works in our desert retreats.

Zomg! You missed the best film ever!

Jessica Segall's pop-up drive-in outside Moriarty, NM?
OMG! Brilliant barely describes it.
In the cooling desert outside Moriarty; in a field grazed by horses and cows; on a landscape riven with rattlesnakes, ants, beetles, and cacti, a copper screen chilled to freezing was coated in milk, taking on the appearance of an ice floe floating in the sky. Upon its surface flickered the sublime images of Jessica Segall in the arctic. Beautiful.
