too much typing—since 2003

Ye Olde Conceptual Arte

A small walk-in freezer, about eight feet wide by six feet deep.

Create block-letter-shaped ice-cube molds, about eight inches high.

Mount the letters created by these about two feet from the rear wall with fishing line strung through the letters so they're suspended in mid-air.

Immediately behind the letters is a series of heat-producing lights, the only lights in the room, which are activated whenever the door to the freezer is opened.

The letters spell

N O T I C E

The catch, of course, is that you can only notice the letters when you're in the process of destroying them...which, of course, brings out the other half of the pun.

I expect my grant money immediately.
