Even from Google Earth you can see it's big, but it's worthless. It's like a Zen koan: What do you call a transnational barrier wall that isn't? I was thinking someone should do something, transform it into something functional. Like a net. Yes, it's not a wall, it's a 3.4 billion dollar net over which we will play the world's first ever game of transnational border volleyball. We will ignore the warnings of friends and family and head to San Diego's notoriously toxic Imperial Beach to play volleyball with our Mexican neighbors. Maybe we can briefly turn a spectacle of segregation and fear into an international symbol of cross-cultural play.
