From the liner notes:
"This meeting took place on Ponape, one of the Caroline Islands in the Pacific ocean, about halfway between Hawaii and Japan,
a few degrees above the equator north of Australia. Thirty-seven people met together over a period of a week in January 1980.
Prepared talks by the twelve participating artists were given in the evenings before and after dinner. The days were spent exploring."
