ON/OFF
Three CRT televisions stand on the floor in a triangle with the screens facing each other. They switch themselves on and off one after the other in a circle. A movie showing a hand using a remote control and appearing to operate the televisions is shown on the televisions at the same time. Three microcomputers synchronize the switching on/off and the film on the three televisions. They play the movie on the televisions and send electronic impulses to three universal remote controls in sync with the movement of the hand in the movie, which are actually used to switch the televisions on and off. This gives an impression of what it means when machines switch themselves on and off. The devices appear like three bodies in space, with the video being transmitted from one television to the next and floating in space like a ghost.
