The [web]Site of Reversible Destiny


BoingBoing mentioned an article in the New York Times about conceptual artist Arakawa and his wife Madeline Gins. Arakawa recently passed away, but not after bestowing the world with tons of weird stuff, such as the Site of Reversible Destiny in Yoro (pictured above). I'm pretty fascinated by homeboy's existence, having known nothing about him prior to tonight even though I've been to the Site of Reversible Destiny. I guess dying proves that some aspects of destiny aren't reversible though, huh?

Straight Outta San Jo!

Despite the difference in scale, it's interesting to see how connections were made and broken, how some of the guys became superstars while others faded away, not unlike some of the people I know.
