...epic and the intimate. Nashville, a Doomsday kaleidoscope set to country music, splashed the whole South with his wily cynicism; Buffalo Bill and the Indians, or Sitting Bull's History Lesson said that American history was a lie dressed up in showbiz frills; and A Wedding, his black spray-paint on a four-tier nuptial cake, contained 48 characters, for no better reason than that Nashville had had 24.

...early morning stroll through New Haven, playing their instruments at 3 a.m. The Crimson reported that their enthusiasm, however, earned them a night in the New Haven slammer. 1963: Widener Library’s pillars were disgraced with “Beat Harvard” spelled out in blue paint. The removal was costly, and the Elis won (boo), but the perpetrators were slapped with a suspension. 1982: MIT’s Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity rigged a large black weather balloon to emerge out of the field’s 45-yard line during the second quarter...
