“Let’s meet at The Boom.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I can’t count how many times I’ve said that to someone, and they knew
exactly what I was talking about. You know it, too.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s become a landmark, a well-known and
beloved backdrop to Cal Anderson Park, a cultural icon.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
You can’t set out to make art into an icon. I’m sure there
are some marketing whizzes out there that could school me on the science of
taking criteria and filtering through an algorithm to turn out a crowd-pleasing
widget.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>(I’m pretty sure this is how
one-hit-wonders are born.)<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But a true
icon worth its salt can’t be forced – people just feel and embrace it, and it becomes
so. It’s a blend of the right energy at the right time, met with a little bit
of magic.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And I boldly say that yes, Boom!
is, or was, a cultural icon.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>How do I
know this? Do a quick Google Images search of “boom! Capitol hill Seattle wall”
and just see what you find: it’s a topic on several Flickr collections;<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>it has filled many a Facebook feed with photos
of people covering their ears, running for their lives, jumping, etc;<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>it’s been used as a backdrop for a number of
couples’ engagement portraits - though I wonder about their photographers, who
carefully copyright their own photos, but don’t consider any copyright or
attribution of the artwork itself (I digress); it has even figured in a couple
of homegrown music videos and <a href="https://vimeo.com/44965820" target="_blank">a Riz Rollins love-letter to Seattle</a>.</div>

This artwork has always been a favorite for me as well. It’s real title is “Is That All There is?” which was inspired by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LCRZZC-DH7M" target="_blank">the Peggy Lee song of the same name</a>. In the song, Ms. Lee expresses how greatly underwhelmed she is over seemingly
big milestones of life – a tragic event, first love, and ultimately, death. Artist Tim Marsden takes that idea and
applies it to his 3-dimensional cartoon style, imagining how one might feel
after witnessing an explosion. Five years after it
was installed, it still makes me laugh – especially because he took planks of
wood, covered them in paint, and made them look like planks of wood. So. Very. Meta.</div>

A few weeks back, Boom! was scheduled for demolition.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was anxious to see how
it would come down – would it be in a blaze of glory, or would it be a slow,
sad dismembering befitting its name? Personally, I was hoping to find they’d
fashioned a cartoon batch of TNT connected to a cartoon detonator.<o:p></o:p></div>

On the appointed day,
I had my preschool son with me, and like all preschoolers, he has a special
sixth sense for knowing when I’m in a rush and therefore dragged his feet every
step of the way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> However, k</span>nowing how the
construction world works, I figured I would arrive just in time for the show,
even though I was 20 minutes late.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I
couldn’t have been more wrong.<o:p></o:p></div>

As I pulled up to Cal Anderson Park, I was immediately
disoriented.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I couldn’t find the
familiar bends of the wall, and stymied for a moment as I tried to get my
bearings.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Suddenly it dawned on me that
there was <a href="https://instagram.com/p/1L-6KLuA5z/?taken-by=soundtransit" target="_blank">an excavator at work, quietly munching</a> <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>on the last of the vertical beams that
held the section of wall where Boom! resided. <o:p></o:p></div>

The artwork on the wall was always intended to be temporary,
and as such, was created inexpensively, with materials that weren’t built to
stand many years out in the elements.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Still,
there are some pieces that I secretly fantasized could find a new home after
construction was done. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Though I knew it was time for Boom! to come down, I was caught off guard at how its removal seemed to happen in a
fast and rather anti-climatic manner,<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>shrouded in blue tarp and cyclone fencing. Nondescript, and no fanfare: Is That All There Is?<o:p></o:p></div>

Ellen Forney with Barbara Luecke in 2008. We were there to do research in advance of our search for an artist for
Capitol Hill Station. Although I’d lived
in Seattle since the late 90s, Capitol Hill had never really been on my
radar. Don’t get me wrong: I’d been on
the hill before, but usually for very specific reasons – Christmas at St.
Mark’s, up to Volunteer Park and SAAM – but always passing through Broadway in
a car to somewhere else. You don’t get
to know a place in a blink-and-miss-it car trip. Once I did get out and walk around, it was a
bit like a homecoming.<br />

I grew up in Tucson, Arizona two blocks from <a href="http://www.fourthavenuetucson.com/" target="_blank">4th Avenue</a>, an eclectic district
just north of downtown and west of the University of Arizona campus. 4<sup>th</sup> Avenue is a great stretch of
small shops, restaurants, a vibrant arts scene and a gathering spot for a mix
of artists, college students, tourists and the homeless. There is no place else like it in Tucson,
where the norm is usually six lane roadways and huge parking lots in front of
big boxes. (Hey, when you have room to spread, you spread.)</div>

Walking down Broadway, I was reminded of my days spent
walking up and down 4th Ave, headed to school, the library or just
wandering.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It has the same
pedestrian-scale feel, intimate enough that you can feel the energy of everyone
else there, bouncing off the storefronts for you to soak up. There wasn’t
anywhere else along the light rail lines thus far that compared to it, so it
was clear that the impact of construction here was going to be very different
from the experiences Sound Transit had had before.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Barbara and I immediately agreed we needed to
preserve that energy somehow.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We began
to formulate how we could take out a major stretch of Broadway without damaging
the intimate, electric vibe of the neighborhood, and thus <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/startsoundtransit/sets/72157626641568760/" target="_blank">STart on Broadway</a> was born.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There was a lull between Sound Transit purchasing the
buildings and when the actual demolition would begin.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The plan was to board up the windows, put a
fence around the spaces and pepper it with “No Trespassing” signs.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The result would have been a dead zone for
two blocks from John to Howell streets.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Definitely this was not a formula for preserving community vibrancy.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
While Barbara started selling the idea of storefront
installations, I set to work on looking for artwork that could be used to cover
up the plywood that was inevitably coming.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Banner covers were an easy sell, of course, but the storefronts were
another story.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Once a site officially
gets turned into a “construction zone,” the rules of who/what/when/where/how
become very controlled.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Liability is at
the heart of most of those requirements, so opening up the buildings to artists
who may or may not have construction experience was going to take a leap of
faith from the owner’s side.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We were
worried as well – will the artwork be safe? What if someone breaks in and
steals or destroys something? We’d only done one other storefront installation
before, and it was on a much smaller scale than this.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But in the end we decided any risks would be
far outweighed by the benefits STart on Broadway would provide, and we
soldiered through.</div>

One day, in the middle of planning and discussing, we got a
call: Jack in the Box had been boarded up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It wasn’t the contractor who had done it, but rather Jack in the Box
themselves, their final act of moving out.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

The Friends of the Nib.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They had given
us some artwork to use, and that quickly went up on Jack in the Box.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It didn’t go off without a hitch.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As a worker was installing the sections of
banner, someone grabbed one off of his truck.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>He had to chase the guy down the street to try and recover it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I still shake my head at it – swiped <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">as it was being installed</i>!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>After it went up, someone <a href="http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/06/calling_all_snitches" target="_blank">cut out a section</a>
to take and hang on
their wall at home.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Despite it being
screwed into the wall behind a chain-linked barrier, somebody figured it was
free and up for grabs.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Then we invested
in industrial glue and put up a sign, courtesy of Friends of the Nib.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That ended that.<o:p></o:p></div>

We also quickly covered up those houses on Denny.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>First, I ran out to Cal Anderson Park and
photographed anything and everything that caught my eye.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With an assist from Tom Long in our graphics
department, a couple hours later we had banners printed up and screwed in – starting
with photos of Kay Rood’s cat on her former home, and happy clouds on the house
next door.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The other houses and Eileen
Court apartments were soon given the same treatment – mostly abstract photos of
details from the park – moss on the trees, water cascading along the texture
pool, et al.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As Tom and I were hanging
banners on what would become known as “The Cloud House,” a passing car stopped and
honked at us. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>“Thank you for doing this!”

It’s a beautiful spring Thursday on Capitol Hill in Seattle.
Tim Marsden of Sound Transit stands in the basket of a scissor lift,
efficiently working an electrical screwdriver as artist Stefan Gruber looks on. Starting on this sunny Thursday, the attached pieces
of artwork and signage are being removed from the section of wall that faces
Cal Anderson Park.</div>

As the twittersphere contemplates their #tbt posts, I’m
having a bit of a Throwback Thursday moment myself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Looking at the last works of art to grace the
wall, I can’t help but think back on the many projects that this site has
hosted, even before the wall existed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Lead Artist and Curator D.K. Pan created an overarching theme of
examining love, loss and the nature of change that he summed up with the words
“time is memory.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>My memory is certainly
teaming: here stood the beloved Café Vivace, dressed in Webster Crowell’s
parasols; over here was our very first art intervention, at those row of houses
where Kay Rood’s home stood; and what was in that restaurant over there again?
Oh, that’s right – neon signs by Ingrid Lahti!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>So much has changed, and yet part of me feels like it’s always been this
way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Once the wall comes down and the
station is open, I’m sure it will feel even more so, and our collective
memories of this place will give way to the new normal.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 12.0pt;">
I remember when the wall first
went up, and D.K. chose red for the color, to represent love.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Love because there is so much passion for
the Hill and its place as the heart of Seattle, and for the great sadness over its inevitable change. Certainly this isn’t
the first time Capitol Hill has undergone a radical shift in its character,
but certainly this is one that will hurt hard.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Capitol Hill needs a lot of love to shepherd
it through this change, and the wall hoped to provide some of that love.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But even that red color caused a lot of angst
and uncertainty – internally at Sound Transit and with the contractor – the
color seemed too bold, to radical. The prevailing desire was to play it safe. Maybe go with the tried and true "Sound Transit Blue," which had worked well on Beacon Hill.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But D.K. stuck to his instinct and as a result, Charles Mudede announced that
year that the wall was “<a href="http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archives/2010/06/29/the-great-red-wall-of-capitol-hill" target="_blank">one of the area’s most impressive works of architecture.</a>” Thus, the lovin' began for our little construction wall. <o:p></o:p></div>

Synopsis<br />
Streamlined Fadeout is a sculptural animation project that unfolds over several months on the SEAT<br />
animator’s portion of the Capitol Hill Wall Project. A grid of colored hubcap “pixels” are flipped<br />
and photographed in a series of patterns that suggests cars moving slowly in traffic; additional runs<br />
of the pattern are photographed as months pass and the color weathers off, and the cars in the video<br />
appear to fade away.<br />

"The vertical pallet garden installation will showcase a beautiful, living, edible vertical garden constructed of waste materials complete with a creative, low cost irrigation solution. The installation will include three large panels detailing at-home construction of a pallet garden. A fourth panel will identify edible plants within the garden to encourage passers-by into a full sensory experience. The aim is to inspire urban Seattleites to recreate pallet gardens at their homes and apartments."<br />

Entitled "Arboretum", the 32" x 92" painting on reclaimed wood was taken sometime between December 19-21st. If you have any information on the whereabouts, please contact the Sound Transit Art Program. Greg will be adding additional works to his installation in the coming months.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7536354575876977095.post-49024755924283954032013-01-09T18:34:00.000-08:002013-01-11T10:42:44.988-08:00Otto Bulut - SEATOtto Bulut is the latest <a href="http://www.experimentalanimation.org/">SEAT</a>, Seattle Experimental Animation Team, artist to utilize the Red Wall for a stop-motion animation film project. As part of SEAT's residency, each artist is allotted 6-months of wall time to develop their project. Some insights into the process from Otto:<br />

"The shoot at the wall was a great experience and was a first for me in a couple of ways. It was my first time directing a crew on a live shoot and my first time doing pixelation (stop-motion with human models). My expertise
is in 2D puppet animation (shadow puppets and paper doll) and 2D
computer animation (Flash, After Effects) and I have rarely had the
opportunity to work with a crew.</div>

The
shoot went surprisingly smoothly. I came in knowing what I wanted to
get on film but not having a technical plan on how to execute it. Seven
members of S.E.A.T. showed up and worked it out with me, quickly coming
up with a plan on how to get my vision captured. I felt like our
collective experience really came together to make it a fun learning
experience. <br />

This experience gave me much inspiration to finish the project which is a music video for

an added benefit, it made me excited to work with teams and live shoots

Witte. Executed over five weeks, the mural is an abstract,
improvisational reaction to the site framed by concept (and word) of
endlessness -- both in relation to the site itself (the painting will
disappear in a few years) and to the continual evolution of the city.
Repeated letterforms collapse into colorful cityscapes, towers climb
within impossible geometries, lifter cranes swing freely above as the
clouds roll in... the visual tableau is of a jumbled, brightly lit
future accented by surreal moments of colorful nostalgia.<br />

A proliferation of surface ornament appropriated from many different cultures covered anything designers could get their hands on. Children were for the first time considered a major demographic, and the market was flooded with books and easily assembled paper toys taking advantage of new print techniques and industrialization that put these objects into the hands of the general public.</div>
<div>
I grew up with reproductions of fairy tales and toy theaters from this period and the fantastical design aesthetics and possibilities of print were firmly cemented in my artistic core. Years later I returned to this rich source material to combine narrative with contemporary print processes on an architectural scale.</div>
<div>
<br />
This piece is based on Jack and the Beanstalk and depicts a human-scale puppet of Jack making his way up a beanstalk snaking throughout the image area of the wall."</div>
