The picture exists as a series of layers or overlays as follows: Layer 1 - A colored xerox from a photograph (by the artist) of the Bridge of Lions across Mantanzas Bay in St. Augustine, Florida; Layer 2 - Overlapping of 2 black/white xerox transparencies (one mirror flip) of a photograph of the artist in character of the Bride from the Trinity Church performance in 1976; Layer 3 - Text is data from two ASP series: the ETI-bet (appearing as a report in the 2nd print issue of Cabaret Vert Magazine [1992], and the Bridgewerk project [1993-95].

This piece is the third in the triad of which 2Murat is the first and Retinal Image is the second.

The Search for Life on Mars was sponsored in part by a Venture Grant from the Ontario Arts' Council for which I am grateful.
