For example, of the three more popular Pokemon, Hitokage, a salamander with a ball of fire on its tail, became Charmander; Fushigidane, a dinosaur with a green garlic bulb on its back, became Bulbasaur; and Zenigame, a turtle who squirts water, became Squirtle.

One 18-ft.-high-ceilinged room was used to generate lightning to test the capacitors the electric firm made. Now video artist Tony Oursler has annexed that space for a talking-light-bulb piece. "We have yet to have an artist who comes here who doesn't have a big idea," says Thompson. "These buildings have a heft that invites large gestures." It's not just new projects.
