"The Mystery of Brick Space" —
Okay, so our first clue
0:35
comes from the movies. You've got
0:37
Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece, 2001: A
0:39
Space Odyssey. And this … this bizarre
0:42
black monolith just shows up. It's this
0:45
object of perfect almost unsettling
0:47
geometry that always signals some huge
0:50
leap in evolution. And what's really
0:52
wild is that while Kubrick was filming
0:53
this, minimalist artists like John
0:55
McCracken were creating nearly identical
0:57
sculptures totally independently of the
1:00
film.
