With the aid of a data glove and data goggles, one visitor at a time can navigate through images visible in the data goggles. At the same time, other visitors see these images on a projection screen or on monitors. The interactor appears to move through a room resembling the upper hall of the New National Gallery in Berlin. This room contains abstract tree stump forms, walls, cones, flat floor slabs with white script, and four rooms in which four scholars and philosophers live: Joseph Weizenbaum, Marvin Minsky, Paul Virilio, and Vilém Flusser give statements on the social effects of the new media technology.
