24-compartment transparent plastic box with lid, 13 1/8 x 9 1/8 x 2 ¼ inches. Each compartment contains a unique rock with a printed card giving its location of origin. The rocks were all gathered in the mid-1970’s from a worldwide network of colleagues of George Maciunas, who published the original edition at that time. Thus, each box represents a different geographical accumulation. Rocks from the original collection; reprinted Maciunas-designed label and cards; new box. This ReFlux Edition is authorized by the Robert Watts estate.
In the April, 1973 Fluxnewsletter, Maciunas sent out a call for assistance: “We need about 50 pebbles…from specific and well described locations (country, town vicinity, which beach or shore, which sea, lake or river). This is for a large Geography box by Bob Watts, which will contain pebbles from various parts of the world….All contributors will receive a box in return.”
