31/7 The laptop computer was hooked up to the speakers by the western wall and the Elsewhere Right Now concert, the accapella concert by The New Noise Trio, the piece recorded in the gallery using the instruments built there,the recordings by Kartoffel Menschen Trio and the covers of songs by Marit Bergman, Jens Lekman and Fred Astereo were played through them. On the screen could be seen a movie of streaming water. In the CD-player on the inner eastern wall could be heard recordings of the songs recorded during the show "Radius of my Heart" (which took place at Galleri Wuthering Heights in Malmo, Sweden). Above the CD-player a cut-out color-printout of a figure playing instruments was placed. Above this figure, in turn, a vinyl LP-record ("In God We Trust, Inc", by the Dead Kennedys) was attached to the wall. The sleeve to the album was placed on the floor right beneath it, leaning against the wall. Three wooden boards found outside the gallery were taken into the gallery space and placed by the outer eastern wall. Two of these (leaning against the wall) were painted green. The third wooden board was painted yellow. . |
