The Big Merino (1985) Steel, glass, reinforced cement (15.2 x 7.4 x 18 meters, 97 tons) Goulburn, New South Wales, Australia Recorded January 21, 1997

Refreshingly free of sotto voices and knowing nods, The Big Merino basks in a sound field of traffic, commerce, weather patterns, and easily digestible music. Though it serves as a sentinel for Goulburn and its horns sweep towards the sky, there are in fact no higher aspirations found here.
