Just add a little bit of... Sauce

Hello and welcome to my linkin' blog. My name is Andrew (a.k.a. Sauce) and I am a 32-year-old Southern guy with a love of film, music, art, theater, technology and The Muppets. Since I was already in the habit of emailing a lot of my friends and family with nuggets of the web, this format allows me to do just that. Read it or not, there's always gonna be something here that piques my interest that I felt was worth sharing with y'all.

METROPOLIS II

California artist Chris Burden and his chief engineer Zak Cook spent four years to creating the toy car mega city that is Metropolis II. The installation measures 20′ x 30′ and features 1,100 cars in constant motion on the eighteen different road ways. Burben’s goal, when building Metropolis II, was less about making a scale model of a city, but more about recreating the energy of a city.

A collector recently purchased the installation for “millions” of dollars, but was gracious enough to donate it to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art for display over the next 10 years.
