Man schreibt einen Satz, schickt ihn via Internet an den Computer der Installation; diese Worte erscheinen dort auf einer ganz in Blau getauchten Leinwand. Gleichzeitig wird der Text in Töne transkribiert; die im Raum schwebende Geige beginnt zu spielen.

Dilemma of Loneliness

"Dilemma of Loneliness" is both a web page from which anyone can submit a sentence no matter where she or he is located, and an electromechanical installation in an exhibition room. The submitted words are immediately translated into a sound scheme by a program that is played by a real violin.The audience in the installation room does not know from whom the sentences that are projected a screen are sent; the sender does not receive any feedback from the installation.
