While going for a walk...

Francis Alys (there are two dots above the y in his last name) recently had an exhibit in Mexico City and one of the displays showed his magnetic dogs that pick up detritus while walking through the city. He has done many interesting things including moving mountains and seeing how long it would take to get arrested while carrying a loaded gun in the street.
