A friend of a friend had a coffee table book many years ago, with photographs of rocks stacked on top of each other, leaves arranged in interesting patterns on the ground, and varoius other bits of nature arranged in interesting stacks, loops, and so on. Now, years later, we’ve finally gotten past the $3-poster-stuck-on-the-wall-with-thumbtacks stage, and want to put up some cool artwork. I cannot for the life of me remember who this guy was, and I can’t get in touch with the friend of a friend to ask him. Does anyone have any idea who I’m talking about? ---
