Incident Light: Details A Color Suspension Dan De Prenger Two red neon filled tubes and two blue argon filled tubes (each 18 feet in length)_ will be suspended (25 feet off the ground) vertically from a leaning tree. B Construction Man J.B. Foster Elevated 6 feet off the ground, welding in normal construction procedures on flat steel. The work will be completed in two hours. C. Fire Burning Water Dennis Swanson Ortega Describes The Modernist's Inversion of Metaphors: Before, reality was overlaid with metaphors by way of ornament; now the tendency is to eliminate the extrapoetical, or real prop and to 'realize' the metaphor to make it the res poetica D. Grow Derrick Woodham A grove of trees illuminated through the hours of darkness E. Picnic in Shelter #3 Franklin Miller Dense fog, small lights and appropriate sounds. F Phantom Truck Thomas Macaulay A description lacking substance G. Stations Chris Parker Four cars will be parked facing each other around a plot of ground 10' by `10' with their headlights on, engines idling, windows up, doors licked, and radios playing at four different stations. Within this illuminated area, one man wearing earphones will dig a hole into which he will descend, placing the removed dirt in a mound on top of the reclining body of a second man holding a transistor radio to which the earphones are attached. The grass initially removed from the spot where the hole is dug will be tied to the antennas of the four cars. The piece will end when the first man is standing in a hold up to his neck listening to the buried radio, and the mound of earth on top of the second man is high enough to interfere with the beams of light from the surrounding headlamps.
