The control top, all nice and lit up at night. Lights in the main unit were set to illuminate through two layers of plexiglas to allow for the control instructions to be read. |

The whole unit at night, with lights on the bottom. The sculpture could be seen from pretty far away on the playa. |

We built a box and and decorated it with lights so that it wouldn't get run over by an artcar. Members of our team went out to refill the gas and found some girl sitting on it. She said it was pretty. |

The inside of the sculpture was lined with sun-filtering mylar to add reflectivity to the blue plexiglas, and ideally, keep down the temperature inside of the box. This made the sculpture visibile as a bright sparkle on the horizon during the daylight hours. |

This photo shows the speaker unit associated with one module of the console. The console consisted of four units each controlling a single sample allowing for modifications to that sample. The speaker behind each module allowed the user to hear the changes. All modules, when played together would assemble into a user-controlled song. |

Nighttime players out on the playa were common at most hours of the night when we went to feed the generator. At times there would be people playing together or there would be one person, manically running in circles composing the song alone. |
