The author describes the landscape sculpture through which he hopes to initiate a dialogue with the earth. The project is located in the Carrizo Plain along the San Andreas Fault in California. Symbols inscribed along the axial line of the fault and a sound system that plays a symphonic composition and simultaneously records the earth’s sounds will serve as the media for communication between artist and the earth during the next, inevitable earthquake at this site
