"Bus Structure 2am-2pm" by R Justin Stewart, 2008
Copper, steel, thread, and wood
Bus structure 2am-2pm is a three-dimensional model of the Sunday
Minneapolis / St. Paul public transit system, where the horizontal axes
represent directional movement and the vertical represents time. The
piece is constructed of 47 horizontal layers, each forming a map of the
bus routes that run during a given interval of time. Looking down from
the top, one sees the Sunday bus map of the Twin Cities, while looking
from the side, the times appears as strata building upwards. Within each
layer, every transit route that operates at that time is represented by
wood balls placed at its scheduled stops.
