Description
Humanities and Social Sciences Film, Audio, Video and Digital Art April, 1990. More cutaways of muddy water at canal (also on #91). Collapsed remnants of Leonard’s monument; assorted zooms and pans document the cave-in – various brightly lettered words and letters are covered by piles of dirt. Jim Cox describes the catastrophe and how it was announced over the C.B.; Leonard had been watering the Mountain “every day for a year”. The talk with Jim Cox (and Tom May) is poorly lit and not real useable at times; contrast problems. UC San Diego Library, UC San Diego, La Jolla, CA 92093-0175 (https://library.ucsd.edu/dc/contact)
