Do It: How To Make A Ricky Board (2012)

David Lynch - Do It Number 12 This board can be any size
you want.
The proportions are dictated by
four rows of five rickies.
There should be twenty rickies
in all.
Each ricky is, as nearly as
possible, exactly the same as
every other ricky.
The ricky can be an object or a
flat image.
The thing about the rickies is you
will see them change before your
eyes because you will give each
ricky a different name.
The names will be printed or
written under each ricky. Twenty
different names in all.
You will be amazed at the
different personalities that emerge
depending on the names you give.
Here is a poem:
Four rows of five
Your rickies come alive
Twenty is plenty
It isn’t tricky
Just name each ricky
Even though they’re all the same
The change comes from the name
