- performed at the Ruine der Kuenste Bedin 1988
- 1988/99
- Color, Stereo, S-VHS, 38 min.
- The documenting camera was held inclined clockwise changing hour by hour,
- to complete more than a full circle, while the audience listened, slept,
read,
- enjoyed himself, chess playingtalking, drinking, or getting into trance,
- hyperactivity or numbness, like the pianist Ulrich Sperl and
- his assistant eventually. Music as furniture, whose existence you forget
after a while,
- as Satie saw it.
- The video document conceptually pictures the atmosphere.
