“This collection of object silhouettes from issues of the Whole Earth Catalog is laid out to resemble images of equipment inventories from the Apollo missions: items spread out in an orderly fashion against (mostly blue) backdrops. Even if the objects in an inventory are unrecognizable, their importance is implied simply by their orderly positioning. This is a future inventory, culled from the past, originally conceived as a guide to gathering the items we'll need to survive a potential disaster—something like the multiple crises we're currently experiencing.” Printed by Spudnik Press, Chicago.
