Also provided to the viewer are the coordinates: 27 47' 52" N 82 41' 43" W. There is an edition of 10 shovels. The title of each shovel is changed depending on the location of its coordinates on earth. Provided with each edition of the shovel is a mathematical formula which enables the viewer to figure out the exact opposite location on Earth from where the shovel is placed. Thus resulting in the new title name.
