Theres another work by Chris Burden that I think are relevant to what Im working on just now. It relates to the play between intention and chances of success. In what Im doing I think it works with the fact that its unlikely that anyone will be greatly influenced by the Laughing Gas as they probably wont breathe much in but its still there to be breathed in so it could have an effect. Burdens 'Samson' that I put up a post about previously works this way because of its gearbox. Burdens work '747' does this very succinctly. He shoots at a 747 with a pistol from the ground. What works nicely is the clear intention of shooting at the plain played off against the chances of actually hitting the plane.
