Large Auditorium

keryn

i was in the auditorium up on the catwalks last week, and when i came down, my friend in front of me said "oh my god!" and when i looked out into the seats, i gasped. there were about 50 prints of an artwork with a little girl holding some kind of musical instrument pasted onto the first 10 or so rows of seats. it scared the shit out of me. i looked to see what the original is called, and its called "between acts"... does anyone know anything about the person who did this? cuz i'm sure they'd like to know that they almost made me piss my pants. i think thats what they wanted from all that work.

Twisted Table

i work in a nursing home, and we have a "line" in which we have food that gets put on trays to take to residents that are bed ridden or in a smaller dining room. it may have been used as a tray line for patients not allowed to leave their rooms. i've been in that room, and i believe that there were trays lying all over the place. maybe for that purpose? i'm totally guessing here.

Shelves

were there any traces of any books? or were those taken when it was abandoned? i highly doubt that looters would have taken the books.
