This reading brought to mind several artists for various reasons. The first being Richard Sarah, second, Bas Jan Ader, and third and most relevant, Olafur Eliasson.

The Anthony McCall piece spoke to me in a way that was full of emotion, and completely void of it; the calm before the storm, if you will. The vortex of light before you die. And when McCall came up with the idea on the sail boat in 1973, it reminded me of this artists, Bas Jan Ader, who sent out post cards to all of his friends and family. On the card was of a picture of him crying that read "I'm too sad to tell you." The greatest part about this person was that in 1975, "as part of his project, In Search of the Miraculous, Ader set out from Cape Cod in a tiny yacht for a two-month voyage across the Atlantic. His boat capsized and he was never seen again."

I thought of Richard Sarah because of how he conceives of his sculptures is very similar to the way McCall created the Between You and I piece, using drawings techniques to create something with light. The same way Sarah uses drawings to create huge metal sculptures.

Third, and more obviously, Olafur Eliasson really plays with light and trickery of the retina. His show at the Dallas Museum of Art was unreal. I spent hours in that exhibition and I could see how McCalls pieces will for sure put you in a trance. You are already in a designated space for art, which I usually define as "Holy Sanctuary of Art", or "Museums," and being able to go to this designated refuge and transcend into a vortex of light would be... not too much less than an enlightening experience.
