        This game is a playful spoof which asks the player to assume the
role of a museum curator in the imaginery "Gallerie de Kunst" and to judge
whether each 'art object'  -- including works by Mapplethorpe, Duchamp,
Ingres and a collection of 'junk' such as a pair of socks -- is indeed a
work of art or not.  The game is rigged to foster creative frustration in
the player and query why certain objects in the real world are considered
museum objects, and who is doing the judging.

no sale price, but the piece is available to be shown in other contexts, as
well as available online through my website.




I hope this suffices; I'm sorry this is late, but my dog ate it AND I just
finished defending my graduate thesis this week. : )
