Wally Glenn
Flaming Zen Garden
The Flaming Zen Garden is an interactive art piece which makes the participants the artist. When a participant draws a pattern into the sand, the flame follows the pattern. This piece has no moving parts and has a flame of 1/4" high. It is quiet, contemplative and always a favorite. It can be accessed by people of all ages, from 4 to 104.
Walter Funk
Hologlyphics
Hologlyphics combines elements of holography, music, video synthesis, visionary film, sculpture and improvisation to create a unique new artform.
These moving spatial visuals are seen in full 3D without glasses, intertwined with music and spatial sound. Although not the same technical process as holography, the visual result is the same.

The Clock of the Long Now and The Rosetta Project
The Long Now Foundation works to foster long-term thinking. We are building an all mechanical, monument-scale clock to last 10,000 years. We have also developed a laser-etched disk containing 30,000 pages of linguistic data and text in over 1,000 languages in order to preserve linguistic diversity for the distant future.

Lifelong Furniture Simply Made from Naturally Beautiful Recycled Stuff
