Meta-Info...Directional We have not really looked into the directional component in a piece of artwork - How a piece's position can change its meaning. For example, this vessel I created includes a function that allows it to be pointed in a particular direction. There is a mark on the base, that can be oriented toward the North. The top portion swivels so that it can be point towards or away from another direction. Along with the ability to include text, this allows the piece to physically reference any part of the world. It also allows for a physical representation of the relationship from that location to the piece's current location. Are there other items such as this? 11:09:26 PM
