摘要
Written in the form of a travelogue, this paper looks at the holes created by the implosions of casinos and the holes in the desert created by atomic bomb testing to cull psychogeographic meaning. It explores holes through the prism of Las Vegas and its surrounding atomic testing site and relates them to my use in my artwork: drawings and sculptures. It suggests that a darker tourism to Las Vegas is most elucidating. It contributes to understanding of holes in urbanism and its changing contours, the exploitative economy and loss, as well as the degradation of the surrounding landscape for military purposes.
