Picture yourself in an imploding myth; radiation fills the most placid landscape with adventure. Reject the picturesque view and embrace the scenically challenged, experience the drama of a life-cycle, and witness the sustenance of an ecosystem. Pit cities against countrysides, both infected with history - a virulent but necessary contagion.
Visitors and residents of the Tularosa Basin, site of the first detonation of an atomic bomb, contribute to the production of public memory as they offer philosophical reckonings, logistical advice, and plaintive cries about making "the journey of the dead."
