The installation consisted of one photo poster with mountainous scenery, three red caps and the sound How are you heard from three CD- walks hidden under the caps. One segment of the installation – the sound How are you, was separated and its visualization, cleared to the core, without uttered audio recording, in the form of its computer picture in wav format, which was transferred from the computer program into a space “picture”, became the basis for the new piece. Any answer or comment is needless, especially since the reconstruction of the sound according to the picture, as well as its authenticity, are impossible. What I offer is sincerity.</span></span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);font-size:100%;" ><span style="color: rgb(153, 153, 153);">Visual recording of audio sound How are you, made of copper wire and set between the piers of the gallery of The Salon of the Museum of Contemporary Art, at the view height.
