So, a while back I posted a journal entry about train tracks and why they seem to fascinate so many people. Well there are lots of train tracks around the place but I admit I've never paid them much attention. I decide every so often I'm going to take a walk along a different stretch of the tracks and see what I find. To get out of the studio and do something different yesterday I walked along a stretch of tracks near campus.

Here's one thing that jumped out at me, bright orange dots. ;)

These are fun! It looks like 7 or 8 different locations... Hmmm.

Yeah I enjoyed it. Same tracks just different spots along it. I don't know if it was someone having fun or someone marking something.

It would be nice to think it had something to do with Morse code for aliens or an art project by a devotee of Christo and Jeanne-Claude [link] but it's more likely to be railway folks marking ties that need to be replaced... ?

*chuckles* Well it's not really on their scale at least the stuff of theirs that I know. Though that would be interesting and I suppose in some way it could be a massive scale. I think I'll vote for alien code, I like that answer. ;) Or maybe it's the squirrel's, it must be the squirrel's fault.

Yeah, I wondered about the replaced ties, though most of them didn't look any worse then any of the others at least as far as my uneducated eyes could tell.

Hi! My name's Crisco. I'm an installation aahrtist from Alpha Centauri. Last week I painted each railway tie with a bright orange dot from Bellingham WA to Bloomington IN. I usually work bigger, but I've been a little sick. You should see what I did in 1054. [link] Oh, wait, I guess you can see it. [link] One of my finest "plasma balloons"...

LOL. That just made my morning. *giggles*

So, Crisco while you're here can I ask you a few questions?

Are you here to take over the world with art? Or is the whole alien domination and take over thing rather over done?

Oh, dahling, we don't just take over worlds. Our motto: "We'll annihilate anything for Art." Nothing gets your blood pumping in the morning like a supernova. And, as Joan-Clod says, "lasts longer than a box of radioactive Sharpies."

Hmmm... I see. Well then let me pose one of the fundamental questions to you, what is art? I've always been under the impression that supernova's and such were naturally occurring. If you consider the creation of one art; what is heart to you and your people beyond the limitations of Earth?
