Description:
Titled in homage to a Sun Ra pun on the double meaning of the word execute, Thomas Stanley's work offers less an exegesis of the copious legacy of the iconoclastic artist's unique cosmospeak than an active intellectual response to Sun Ra's thickly layered take on the condition and fate of intelligent life on Earth.
