... a spore-like object composed of large traffic cones clustered together at the base in the shape of a sphere. The spore would be placed on the wide sidewalk at the intersection of Myrtle and Clinton Avenues in Brooklyn. Inside would be a small mp3 player that would play narratives of the sites recent history (crack wars, pre-gentrification stories), distant history (the changing racial composition of the neighborhood in the period after WWII, including the since disappeared elevated train that once ran along Myrtle Avenue; and lastly, the forgotton history of clerks and laborers from the nearby Navy Yard and their labor struggles in the late 19th century. These narratives would be told by local residents (in the case of the first two histories, and read by local residents in the last case). The sound would emanate quietly from the center of the spore, and members of the public would put their ears near the opening at the end of the cones to listen. In this way, the orange cone language, so often an indicator of the erasure of history (in a state of continual development) would be repurposed as a tool of recapturing and remembering-- thus AN-amnesia.
