Opening Reception: Friday, January 5, 2001, 6:00 – 8:00pm
Badminton is a wordplay that contains two meanings: 1. Bad Mint On (smell) and 2. Tons of Bad Meanings. This installation consists of two wall size diagrams. Viewers are encouraged to participate by uncovering the pornographic images underlying these overblown connect-the-dots schemas. Multiple choice tests. The smell of cow brains. A kindergarten classroom. Associations link up and sometimes fail. These systems are further encoded by the layering of video and sound.
