Small Ideas

When the Olympic Sculpture Park opened, it displayed the oversized typewriter eraser. That’s neat because typewriter erasers are extinct, and blowing up one super big makes you really appreciated that you don’t have to use one on your word processor.

But now there are two more exhibits based on the same idea of rendering small things really big. First, big post-it notes and push pins.

Then, these enormous traffic cones all over the park.

They’re both cool ideas. But, seriously, there’s nothing to think about them but, “Wow, those things are like gigantic.” I’m over it.
