Where do all those “ 1000 HOURS barren ! ” AOL discs finish up ? Apparently at Long Knoll Park in Kilmington , England , where a group of 160 friends latterly laid 600,000 discs to make CDSea , a massive waterway of obsolete media .
CDSea is the work of artist Bruce Munro , who put out the call for fresh CDs only a few week ago . Unsurprisingly , they poured in by the thousands . But the workplace was pep up by a moment almost three decades ago , when Munro was in Sydney , Australia :
The light was still strong , like a blanket of shimmering eloquent light . I had this childish notion that by putting my script in the sea I was somehow associate to my home in Salcombe , where my father lived //// I amount away from the beach in a very positive chassis of mind .
A extremely personal part of art that ’s also an impressive public spectacle — let ’s see you do that with your iTunes library . CDSea will stay installed in the park for two months — the snaking division in the eye is intend as a public footpath — after which the CDs will be reuse . believe of it as one last testimonial to the AOLs and Limp Bizkits of the Earth before they fleet away incessantly [ Yatzer ]
