Funf am Boden plazierte Monitore sind jeweils um 90 Grad gekippt. Der Text: "Glattes Eis ein Paradeis, fur den der gut zu tanzen weiss" zieht, ins Morsealphabet ubersetzt, als Animation uber die Monitore. (Entnommen aus: Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche: "Fur Tanzer" In: "Die Frohliche Wissenschaft ­ la gaya scienza", Vorrede 13, 1882) Ausserdem ist der Text in Form von akustischen Morsezeichen auch zu horen. Im Bunker unter dem Alexanderplatz erweckt die Videoinstallation Erinnerungen an die Zeiten, in denen das Morsen das wichtigste Kommunikationsmittel war.

Five monitors are positioned on the floor, each is turned around its axis with 90 degrees. The text: "Smooth ice is paradise for those who dance with expertise" taken from: Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche "For Dancers" in "The Gay Science ­ la gaya scienza", Preface 13., (1882) is translated in an animated Morse code, which flows over the monitors. The sound of the installation is also manipulated Morse code. Positioned in a place of historical importance, the bunker under Alexanderplatz in Berlin, this video installation aims to stimulate the memories of the past, anxieties and lost hopes transmitted through this communicative tool, which has, today, been abandoned and almost forgotten.
