A roughly pixelated animation is projected onto the floor. Equipped with different objects that function as screens, visitors walk around the space freely while trying to pick up the projected images. The piece was designed to give each visitor a different experience and impression, depending on the materials he/she chooses as a screen, and on the order and direction of locomotion.
