		It is Turrell who has been aware of this distinction and very successful in introducing the experimental techniques of film and volume colors, while throughout the history of art, technology had been mainly limited to surface color.
		Turrell seems to have found a huge space for some freely floating 'thoughts without words' in the twilight zone where photopic and scotopic visions are pushing against each other.
		Turrell's intention to produce a medium through which we could be 'thinking without language,' or 'not no thinking, but not thinking with language' would not be welcomed in formal scientific circles.

		Turrell had been working on the project since 1972 and it has been described as a 'lifetime project' by some.

	James Turrell's Light Fantastic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		For a quarter of a century, Turrell, an artist who says he "sells colored air and blue sky," has been converting a volcanic crater in northern Arizona's Painted Desert into an immense naked-eye observatory that combines ancient principles of archaeoastronomy with modern insights from the labs of perceptual psychologists.
		Turrell, who studied perceptual psychology before turning to art, explains that through these "eyes" he is bringing the sky down into the earth, where underground visitors will experience it in a new way.
		While working on the crater, Turrell, a pioneer of installation art, has also been creating art out of light in museums and galleries—projecting and mixing colored light to create seemingly solid objects.

		James Turrell is part of a loosely grouped, Los Angeles-based movement known as Light and Space artists.
