Hi Edward
that is indeed the original.
Except the very original, I believe, was in the form of a memorandum to all 
staff and students at the college where Weiner was working...

I like it very much.
I wanted to make a little joke on Rauschenberg's erasure of a De Kooning 
drawing applied to a piece of conceptual art...what would it look like?
I'm quite proud of the clunkiness of my resulting apparatus....

I very much enjoyed reading your Furtherfield review of 'The Last 
Collaboration' - it's a beautifully written piece which honours Millie's memory 
in both being a direct tribute to her and an appreciation of her work but also 
in that you do what she would have done which is to think fearlessly, smartly & 
cogently aloud about the issues raised by it.
I hope lots of folk will read both your review and the book itself...
warmest wishes
michael

Michael -

I'd be very interested to know the original on which this is based. I 
had a quick Google, and found an image of "A RUBBER BALL THROWN AT THE 
SEA" in big blue letters on a white wall. If that's the original, then 
you've done a lot with it.

- Edward
