Images transmitted live from the exhibition on the lower floor were projected on to the wall of the production room – often used for presentations – by Video-Beamer. Viewers could use the control desk installed here to control the camera and the tripod remotely, and thus stroll from one work to another, move closer to them and then move away again. A remote controlled video camera was used to transmit images of the pictures in the exhibition space into the INM video studio. Documentation about the exhibited pictures can be seen on the editing monitors. Visitors could sit at the editing desk and plunge into the reality of the video, into a different kind of visual experience, at the very same point at which the video had been produced. And at the same time visitors could look through the large glass window that separated the production room from the video studio, and watch the live pictures, rather like a dissolve, from the exhibition space on the floor below and the visitors‘ interaction in the production room.
