Three prints based on Kodak slides of a lunar landing and the 2009 Disintegration.

Knowing that Holden used photographs of the television throughout his work he was given these three slides taken of a live television transmission at the moment of a lunar landing. What lunar landing is not known, the slides were left undeveloped for a while and it was originally thought it was the first landing but the printed date on the reverse of the slides states 1972. Holden decided to incorporate the slide frames as well as the pictures into the pieces. Circles of lettering taken from the slides divide the images, Kodachrome transparency, Made in England, and View from this side can all be read around the picture. On looking at the printed information on these frames Holden notice that the each slide was numbered 10, 9, 8 like the start on the countdown to lift off. He named the series Lunar landing Ten, Lunar Landing Nine, Lunar landing Eight.
