Installation elements; last updated: October 29, 2004
 
  [installation] ------------------------------------------------------The installation provides a kind of stage set-up with two computer units and a sound system to address, confront, alienate, contaminate the processes of detainment, of inclusion and exclusion, on different coded levels (language, computer code, audio).
The shell script outputs of the naked bandit/here, not here/white sovereignscript processes are displayed on computer monitors and describe the following dialog/loop:

[printouts/voices] ---------------------------------------------------

white sovereign: naked bandit here, not here
naked bandit: here, not here


[audio/script interface] ----------------------------------------------The print outs also become audible as audio samples in the installation. By means of a computer interface, the audience is given a 'voice' to address and witness the invisible naked bandit. The installation offers a manipulated reboot button of a PC: pressing it effects a restart of the white sovereign/naked bandit script codes. After reaching a certain threshold level of audience engagement, the audio sample/voice of the public will be triggered:the public: naked bandit here and now!The presence and interaction of the audience relocates the coded in-betweenness of the naked bandit.
