A spatial model rotating steadily around its own axis. The camera fixed to it makes the corridor and the image on screen seem static, while the white spheres within “float” through the room as if being moved by ghostly hands. In reproducing the model, a new filmic space is created – the viewer’s eye is subject to an illusion that is atypical of cinema.
