Artist description: "There are three trees. The Poetree is programmed with poems, stories, etc., by different writers, poets, and storytellers whom I invited to send a recorded work they would like people to hear coming out of a tree. The Music Tree is programmed with music by different musicians and songwriters I invited to send a recorded work they would like people to hear coming out of a tree. The Tree of Contents is silent. The names of everyone associated with the project to date are stamped into the lead surface of the Tree of Contents."
