reminds me of the time, long ago, at an abandoned warehouse party in
bklyn: someone had set up a sculpture and the idea was that the
audience would throw rocks and things and try to knock stuff off of
it. but it degenerated into us (the audience) smashing cinder blocks
on the floor to get big chunks and trying to totally destroy the
sculpture. at one point the artist stepped between us and the
sculpture telling us we were doing it wrong and trying to explain the
piece, but my friend dan, with rock in hand, yelled at him to get out
of the way, or else. we were all really drunk at the time. the thing
ended up being totally destroyed.
