Yesterday we took our first CLUI bus excursion via the LAND/ART symposium weekend.
The journey was described as, "The Center for Land Use Interpretation (CLUI) will take passengers on a guided bus tour through some of the more compelling and dramatic built landscapes of New Mexico, places at the core of this landscape-centered state. The tour will examine the cultural stratigraphy of the contemporary technological sublime; the veneer of test space; the reach upwards; the security of entombment; and the flare of the nuclear furnace."
We'll be blogging about the excursion and the weekend more in depth here soon.

The highlight of the journey was the Black Hole of Los Alamos.
Oh my... a daisy bomb. That makes me want to cry.
ReplyDeleteI had not heard of Joseph Rotblat. What a hero he is. Thanks for this info. The OPI church is inspiring... the Black Hole depressing.
