Monochrom, the crazy Austrian net-artists, continue their tear through the West Coast. They're holding an "illegal space race" through Los Angeles:
LA is big. Big enough for an "illegal space race". We will place the
planets true to scale (sun, 4 meters in diameter, Pluto, one centimeter in
diameter, about 20 miles away) throughout the LA cityscape. Then we will
conduct a car race. The team that makes it through 'LA space' fastest wins
the interplanetary trophy. In conclusion, of course, the speeds of the cars
will be calculated, for example, how much faster than light they were.
Patrick Dondl of Caltech will be on hand as astrophysical guest commentator
to comment on the events.June 25, 2 PM @ Machine Project
