Agents of Change is printed two-sided and grows to 194 inches when fully open. It contains observances by the artists and a seven-inch vinyl record with tracks containing chain saw and wood chipping sound art. Photographic images in the book represent a time line of important political changes and speak to the loss of trees in the urban forest.
