Unlike paintings and statues, projection art is more like a cloud when compared with an ocean.  It has virtually no substance.  It is either field projections or the product of projection spheres.  One of the big advantage of projection art is that one day the gallery can be set up to show a battlefield recreation and the next it can be set up to show the sinking of the Titanic; iceberg and all. 

From 1928 to 1946 there was game show played in the Projection Art Gallery.  It was called “Hide In Plain Sight.”  It was shown on the local TV station WNGT; the oldest TV station in the nation which has been broadcasting since 1824.  This was decades before the outsider inventors of TV were born.  Yet people had televisions since the mid-18th century when they watched programs from other dimensions.  And one of the things people enjoyed watching were game shows. 

Fargren Main was the host of the program as well as the host of a few talk shows and a variety show throughout his career at the station which lasted from 1910 to 1970.  He retired from hosting duties to devote his time to producing programs from 1970 to this day.  His perfect hair and marvelous personality are what people remember to this day.  He never seemed to be down.  This helped during the Great Depression and two world wars plus KBW 2. 

The greatest contestant on “Hide In Plain Sight” was Ulla Norgren.  The purpose of the game was for contestants to tell real objects from projections.  As long as they could recognize what was real, they could stay in the game.  Usually people were tripped up after a dozen guesses or less.  Up until Ulla came along, the record was 47.  She reached the show’s limit of 100 correct guesses and was forced to retire from the program.  At the rate she was going, she could have guessed correctly maybe over 200 or 300 times. 

The rules of the game were simple.  There were six contestants in the beginning.  The Projection Art Gallery was set up to show upwards to 100 items with only two or three items being real.  Each contestant was brought in to recognize which items were real from sight alone since no one was allowed to handle any of the items.  Four contestants went on to round two and two contestants were let go.  If more than four people were able to recognize what was real, the four that recognized them the fastest were allowed to go on to round two.
