DOEprojekts installed a 51 foot temporary landmark titled "home" with the help of artist Richard Laurent and curator Franck Mercurio. The landmark incorporates the cultural keyword "home," one of over 100 cultural keywords cited by social scientists as having qualities of "significance but difficulty" in both public discourse and a broad spectrum of academic disciplines.
In relationship to "Avian Spirits," the keyword "home" is a playful "visual cue" for avian friends, such as homing pigeons, who find their way back to their origin through the use of visual landmarks, as well as smell/odors, the earth's magnetic field and the sun's azimuth (see below).
"Avian Spirits" opened on Sunday, July 13, 2014.
"Landmark home" treats were inscribed in cinnamon with the help of the new "Cinnibird" writing utensil. For more information about "Cinnibird," go to: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/cinnibird-the-pen-that-uses-ground-material--3
