not my favourite Tim Hawkinson stuff, but good enough to keep me from hating the ACE this year and losing my faith in artist scientists due to the rest of the gallery's show (repeated below) - a disclaimer to which i make, in part, in honor of the art ideas of my scientist friend, Elliott Carter Ferris.

tim hawkinson, yea-hah! were you able to go see his uberorgan?
