《THINK EAST》将成为位于东奥斯汀的一个占地24英亩的经济适用房和艺术家空间发展项目，地点原本是一个石油储存“罐区”。二十年前，为了应对众多健康和环境问题，一场由社区发起的基层运动成功关闭并搬迁了这些油罐。作为thinkEAST总体规划过程的一部分，Fusebox Festival在该地点组织了一次“生活设计研讨会”（living charette），以收集意见并测试想法。我们建造了一个预算有限的直径为25英尺的“罐体”装置，它既作为活动的入口，也是一个讲述故事的工具。内墙上贴满了从搬迁活动中收集到的原始文件复印件，包括照片、传单、地图和法律判决书。许多参观者是社区活动家，他们以前从未在一个地方看到过这些材料。他们和其他节日参与者反复提出的要求是将此装置的永久版本整合到新的thinkEAST开发项目中。

THINK EAST

thinkEAST will be a 24 acre affordable housing/artist space development in East Austin on the site of a former petroleum-storage ‘tank farm'. Two decades ago, in response to numerous health and environmental concerns, a grassroots neighborhood campaign achieved a remarkable victory in shutting down and relocating the fuel tanks.  As part of the masterplanning process for thinkEAST, the Fusebox Festival organized a ‘living charette’ on the site to solicit input and prototype ideas.  Our 25' diameter ‘tank’ installation, constructed on a shoestring budget, acted as both gateway and a storytelling device for the event.  The inner walls were pasted with photocopies of original documentation from the relocation campaign, including photos, flyers, maps and legal rulings.  Many visitors were neighborhood activists who had never seen the material assembled in one place before.  A repeated request from them and other festival-goers was for a permanent version of the installation to be integrated into the new thinkEAST development.
