the balls hit the wall and bounce randomly away as a museum guard chased after them. This viewing emphasized a sense of â&#x20AC;&#x153;play,â&#x20AC;? with the machine, like a rambunctious child, teasing its reluctant â&#x20AC;&#x153;playmate.â&#x20AC;? The same piece, but two games and, therefore, two different pieces. Even though the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Playmateâ&#x20AC;? is inanimate, Powers has created a performance piece reminiscent of the 1960s Fluxus group, whose creations existed in the reactions of the viewer. Powers plays with our emotions and delicately balances the the joys of childhood with the loss of innocence. Another piece that demands viewer participation is Justin Kiddâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;In and Out Box.â&#x20AC;? Consisting of a crudely constructed mailbox hanging on the wall, visitors to the exhibit are invited to â&#x20AC;&#x153;mailâ&#x20AC;? a postcard from the Czech Republic
