- a spectators view
This video shows how a spectator chose to walk around the Model Exhibition. How he stops in the walk-around and focuses on details in the picture and sometimes goes back to look on an earlier picture. The visuals are combined with a constructed sound that adds traces of sound to the layers of traces from the visual culture.

The blackbird meets the head of the black woman from the fifties.
Under the sky you are always alone.
The birds and the fire rope of Hans Christian Andersen.
