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, the covers of songs by Marit Bergman, Jens Lekman and Fred Astereo and the recordings of the music (Light 1 & Light 2) performed in the gallery by Jens Lekman, Terese Nordström and Hampus Pettersson were played through them. On the screen could be seen a movie of streaming water.

A painting depiciting the band Sonic Youth performing a concert in a forest (with 18 word balloons reading "Hello we are Sonic Youth, and this song is called "Incinerate") was made on the wooden board leaning against the inner eastern wall.
A drawing of two figures in an apartment was placed overlapping the drawing of some figures visiting a Virgin Mary shrine and recieving amulets. Another drawing, this one depicting a concert in the Sound Fix record store, some people in a bar (two of them dancing) and two figures looking at a large moon (with two word-balloons reading "Harvest moon" and "I smell jasmine") was placed above the drawing of another concert in the Sound Fix record store.

The drawing of some figures by a cafe, with a sleeping figure and some stars above it, was moved from the outer eastern wall to the western wall, where it was placed underneath the photograph of a figure in a Morrissey-wig. The photograph of a flower-patterned textile was removed from the outer eastern wall, one of the flowers depicted on the photograph was cut out and placed on the western wall, high up on the left-hand side.

The cut-out drawings of a house with a rehearsal-space in it, and of a band performing (with word-balloons reading "State of the Union" and "Riot at McDonald's") were placed next to the drawing of two groups of three people sitting, one of which had the word-balloons reading "Pixies Clash", "Guns 'N", "Roses", "Du är en punkare!" and "You are a punk!", and the photocoped sketchbook page of some figures sitting (one with a guitar) and a text reading "They said you were punk You're punk!"
