- | An inflatable tube made from transparent plastic, 250 metres long and 3 metres in diameter, was placed over the Masch lake connecting its opposite banks. This air-filled floating bridge had airlock revolving doors at each end, and its pliable floor was in direct contact with the water surface. Visitors were able to enter this almost immaterial structure and cross from one side of the lake to the other as if walking on water. In Groningen the tube was placed in a U-shape in the harbor in the front of the Central station (where the new Groningen Museum is now located).\\ | + | {{: |

The intention of this work was to transmute the conventional flat cinema projection screen into a three dimensional kinetic and architectonic space of visualisation. The multiple projection surfaces allowed the images to materialise in many layers, and of the audience (many of whom spontaneously took off all their clothes) became part of the cinematic spectacle. In this way the immersive space of cinematic fiction included the literal and interactive immersion of the viewers who modulating the changing shapes of the pneumatic architecture which in turn modulated the shifting deformations of the projected imagery.With speakers placed both outside and inside the structure, its acoustic environment was also modulated in this way.\\ | The intention of this work was to transmute the conventional flat cinema projection screen into a three dimensional kinetic and architectonic space of visualisation.

+ | The event took place at the Experimental Film Festival of Knokke Le Zoute (Belgium) so was in all its literal flexibility and spatial dynamics a comment on the fixity of regular cinema experiments that tend to remain within the frame of the standard projection equipment. So it confronted the audience mostly made up of cinema people with their imprisonment within the cinema screen. There was life electronic music done by the group Musica Elettronica Viva at that time based in Rome with among others Fredric Rezewsky and Richard Teitelbaum. The visual content is also important to mention in more detail, as a selection of advertisement and governmental propaganda movies were projected, from an anti-communist comic by the American John Birch Society to USA government movies showing the air war over Vietnam. This last visual statement was misunderstood by some members of the audience as far as I remember belonging to Marxist-Leninist student opposition from West-Berlin. There were shouts against American imperialism from the audience ... Last year this event was commemorated at the Rotterdam Film Festival and I made a ' | ||

In Waterquake long lengths of tubing were dropped into a canal and then slowly inflated with air and smoke. The tubing emerged from the water, filling the canal and then spilling over into the surrounding streets. The spectators pulled and knotted these tubes into various forms - when they broke holes in the plastic skin the smoke inside was released.\\ | In Waterquake long lengths of tubing were dropped into a canal and then slowly inflated with air and smoke.
