The performance comprises two parts. On the first day I perform in an empty gallery. My action in space corresponds to where I anticipate the audience will be in the space, and to how communication between us will develop. The action is videotaped. The next day a monitor is placed in one corner of the gallery, and a playback of the video begins at the same moment that the live action commences. Now, I attempt to transform my anticipation into reality, i.e. I repeat my private performance in the presence of the audience. The action is videotaped (with the camera remaining in the same position). S.I.
