Looking at the landscape, the movement of people and the city through the window reminds us of the gap between the self and others. Always separated, yet always entwined. The work utilizes the viewers body and the window frame as a metaphor for the mind and the eye. The mind it seems, is never isolated but constantly triggered and formed by outer stimuli and sensory input. By making the viewers presence a significant part of the art itself the sound piece dwells on the question of what is consciousness and where in the midst of it all is I.
