The Sky Report

From Plastic Tub

Collaborative effort. 1995-Present. The texts come from the prophetic utterances of a one-armed Zia in the New Mexico desert recorded by Steven Adkins. Videotape stolen from John Titor forms the basis of the flash movies created by Tim Wilson for the project. Their apocalyptic clarity has been known to induce seizures of panic among the sensitive of heart.

SKY REPORT: I YAIR

The east bore a sickly pale underbelly of light pollution in a fashionable toxic yellow . . .
The west was a splotch of black upon splendid knees . . .

SKY REPORT: OY

In the farthest reach western: red, slim beguiling;
Southerly, and to the west: blue, so contrapuntal;
Between it all the stout furry legs of a grey and serious cloud;
a spoonfull of debris
