LANCE ARMSTRONG BIKEWAY PROJECT_TUNNEL 02 INSTALLATION

Thursday, November 19, 2009
Jack Sanders / Myself (RGAY) managed to get the second Tunnel installed within a short timeline, but only with the help of Ben May / many thanks to Ben for the valuable contribution.//
This is the final installation of the TUNNEL elements for LAB. +/- 8hrs enabled us to turn a small overgrown patch of weeds (thanks City of Austin Rec Department/for weed eaters) to 12 new yellow steel loops.
Located on Cesar Chavez / West of Lamar Bridge.
We hope you enjoy, we are almost done, now on to the installation of the solar lights.

LANCE ARMSTRONG BIKEWAY PROJECT_TUNNEL 01 INSTALLATION

Thursday, October 29, 2009
We (leah davis, robert gay, jack sanders) are excited to finally install one of the large sculptural pieces for the LAB AIPP project called the Tunnels. What a marvelous day to be in Austin and working with good friends to install these undulating ribs.

Throughout the process of fabrication we designed into the system a level of randomness, so that each tunnel piece would lean or sit in a different direction. (so it is purposeful). We also wanted to explore how the installation process could have some of that same randomness, by intuitively deciding on site what loops went where.

Tunnel 01 is in the ground. We are getting close, stayed tuned for more installation news as we finish this project this month.
