Remember Lobster Boy? Looks like his performance art / engineering project met a sadly premature end when his house was dismantled for being a fire hazard. Now we may never know what the point was -- or if there was ever a point at all.

Tie yourself to a half-constructed house on a school campus and live there in solitary confinement while on semi-public display to the world, pissing into a jug and making conch-shell noises from a piece of cardboard and a bullhorn. And do it all in a lobster suit. If that's not performance art, then what is? (Link from a blogger-friend who got it off NextDraft.)
