Sure they're fun ideas, but I think that Bob and I have come up with many equally stupid ones. What makes Horowitz special is that he actually <i>follows through</i> with his ideas no matter how pointless or mundane they may seem. When an idea that is acted upon then sparks that unquantifiable entity we call art, then suddenly the idea doesn't seem all that stupid and pointless. Incidentally Coffee In The Park is my personal favorite.<p>A similar style of expression can be seen in the <a href="http://humanclock.com">Human Clock</a> project.
