  SISYPHUS AND THE VOICE OF SPACE
Sisyphus is doomed to BeaUtica for eternity, where he hauls polystyrene foam up 60 feet to the catwalks of an ancient powerhouse, builds the stone of rejection, hones the egg of rejection, carves the sphere of rejection, and hatches the Voice of Space. After a brief conversation, Sisyphus attempts his escape, the aged Voice of Space surveys what has become of BeaUtica, laments the bucolic days of yore, and commits suicide by rolling off the edge 60 feet to the earth. Alas, Sisyphus is forced to return and repeat the task. Forever.
