Served two food items typical of Japan’s Fukushima Prefecture at Occupy Boston. Three primary events occurred to make this possible:

• Testing cookbook recipes for zunda mochi and kombu maki.
• Two friends from Vermont visiting Boston.
• Over 300 people pitching tents in Boston’s financial district.

These signs also contained instructions to take the objects, give objects of their own, or both. The space, surrounded by trees and centered by an oversized, sculptural ghost light (installed by others and not explicitly for Free),  became a space of commodity exchange over the course of two days.

The changes that took place in the space over the two days of the project were:

• An old hard drive was taken
• Some blank notebooks were taken
• All of the paper scraps were taken, later a single incinerated corner of one of the papers was found half a mile away near a spent bonfire.

No clothes or tools were taken from the site. Neither did anyone add anything to the site.

Assembled entirely out of videos and sounds that existed as prior works and are now in the public domain.

The clay body was developed through a systemic process, which involved testing the qualities of 90 different combinations of materials. The final sculpture contained popcorn. The kernels popped and vaporized in the firing process. The result was a semi-chaotic form evolved/devolved from a carefully architected and executed primary shape.
