In November 2009, my brilliant compadre Ariel Federow and I drove out to her family’s old iron scrapyard in Springfield, MO to see what we could see there.  We made some art, learned to drive stick, and eventually wound up at Thanksgiving with my family.  It was a pretty fantastic trip.

We have a web site for the project here.  A little piece of it is reproduced on my site here.  More pictures from the road are here and from the scrapyard are here.  A cool interactive map of the route we took to get there is here.

On Sunday, January 3, Ariel and I will turn my house into a scrapyard installation including videos, sculpture, and lots and lots of junk.  Email me for more info if you’d like to come!
