A pilgrimage must stop for the desert dreamers.
Transmission Sculpture By Daniel Popper的点评
点评：If you’re a regular Joshua Tree road tripper like me, you absolutely must add Daniel Popper’s TRANSMISSION to your desert pilgrimage list - at least once. This is not just a sculpture—it’s a towering, soul-stirring installation that feels like it was dropped straight from the cosmos onto the sands of Joshua Tree.
Now, let’s talk logistics: yes, it’s a bit of a trek. About 5 miles down Sunfair’s paved stretch and another mile on a surprisingly well-behaved dirt road, but hey—this is Joshua Tree. A little dust on your tires is practically a rite of passage. And believe me, once you see this colossal beauty rising from the earth like a modern-day monolith, you’ll know it was worth every bump in the road.
Popper has a way of blending scale and serenity, and TRANSMISSION is a perfect example. It’s massive, otherworldly, yet feels at home in the desert silence—like it’s been whispering its secrets to the stars for centuries. Standing before it, you can’t help but feel a little small… in the best possible, humbling way.
What isn’t humbling? The fact that some humans decided to deface the information board. Honestly, I swear, people like that should either stay home or take a long swim in holy water. This is art meant to inspire awe, not a canvas for Sharpie warriors. Some things just deserve respect—and TRANSMISSION is one of them.
Bottom line: if you appreciate great art in wild places, make the detour. Bring water, bring your camera, and most importantly, bring your sense of wonder. TRANSMISSION isn’t just a sculpture—it’s a pilgrimage stop for the desert dreamers among us.
100% worth the drive.

翻译：如果你像我一样经常在约书亚树国家公园自驾游，那你绝对应该把丹尼尔·波普尔的《传输》（TRANSMISSION）添加到你的沙漠朝圣之旅清单中——至少一次。这不仅仅是一座雕塑——它是一个巍峨耸立、震撼人心的装置艺术作品，感觉就像是从宇宙中直接落到约书亚树国家公园的沙漠上。
现在，我们来谈谈后勤保障：是的，这确实有点长途跋涉。沿着桑费尔国家公园的铺装路段行驶大约5英里，再沿着一条出奇平坦的土路行驶一英里，但嘿——这可是约书亚树国家公园。轮胎上沾上一点灰尘几乎就是一种仪式。相信我，一旦你看到这件如同现代巨石般拔地而起的宏伟之作，你就会知道一路上的每一次颠簸都是值得的。
波普尔擅长将规模与宁静融为一体，《传输》就是一个完美的例子。它气势磅礴，宛如世外桃源，却又在寂静的沙漠中显得格外亲切——仿佛几个世纪以来，它一直在向星空低语着它的秘密。站在它面前，你会情不自禁地感到自己渺小……以一种最美好、最谦卑的方式。
还有什么不令人谦卑呢？是某些人类竟然决定在信息板上涂鸦。说实话，我发誓，这样的人要么待在家里，要么去圣水中畅游一番。这是一件旨在激发敬畏之心的艺术作品，而不是用来描绘“笔尖战士”的画布。有些东西就是值得尊敬——“传送”（TRANSMISSION）就是其中之一。
总之：如果你欣赏荒野中的伟大艺术，那就绕道而行吧。带上水，带上相机，最重要的是，带上你的好奇心。“传送”不仅仅是一座雕塑——它是我们这些沙漠追梦者的朝圣之地。
绝对值得一游。
