For his OJAC exhibition, Boyd continues his investigation of Americana and the American Landscape with reflections on "...what we were, reconciling where we are with where we hope to be, and finally about pushing off bravely into what is still unknown." A labyrinth of wire hums with the gusting sounds of West Texas winds as well as those of the solar winds of planet Jupiter as it guides the viewer/participant through the gallery space. The path leads to a Voyager-type space craft-fully loaded with all the things one might need for a journey of unknown distance and destination.
