| LAZY EIGHT - by Tom J. |
| Tom used a dripping paint platform to complete Lazy Eight in one session that lasted forty five minutes. He operated two button switches attached to the tray of his wheel chair. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| The first was connected to a rotating turntable and cassette player with music. Each time he activated this switch his favorite music played for sixty seconds and the table top rotated for a complete revolution before stopping. The second switch turned on a small fan facing the path of the falling paint drops for sixty seconds each time it was activated. |

 |
| Eight bottles with sugar and tempera paint mixtures dripped shades of red or white onto the pre-prepared black canvas resting on the turntable below. The color choices, the pace of the falling drops, and the locations of the paint bottles were determined by Tom’s collaborator. |
 |
 |
 |
| The canvas was repositioned halfway through the session allowing Tom to cover the entire surface. He used the turntable switch often, and about twice as much as the fan switch. |
