Digital Virality: Water Toxicity

Modeling after Smithson (analogy): (re)mapping the accident/chance. The Harlem Shake got millions and millions dancing, creating; perhaps the Cabot Koppers Shake will get the people of Gainesville dancing to a different rhythm. A more fluid rhythm. Chance, especially as articulated in the Cabot Koppers superfund site, often demands an urgency. We can learn to use chance to help us better see/understand a given disaster (example: the language of Tarot) via an aesthetic undergoing. High concentrations of dixoin are present in Cabot Koppers; dixoin causes various physical deformities, organ damage, cancers, etc. But a different way of siting/sighting dixoin poisoning: the strategy of the viral meme.
