Hundreds
of plastic bags filled with mock seaweed and fake fish lined nearly half a city
block, lit up by Christmas lights beneath them, with an ambient sound backdrop
of croaking frogs and echoing drops of water. The soothing effect of it had people
crowding around in the warm evening air to take pictures and gawk. Incoherent performance
art that sheds its veneer of intellectual seriousness actually turns out to be
a lot of fun.
