REC. n-Orthotopic Infusion / Galleri Seilduken / Oslo (NO) / 2015

Movement in fixed geometrical patterns. Dense infusion tubes. One body. The body enters the space through the middle door, long wall, initiates n-Orthotope repetition 1 by entering core compartment installing infusion-tube 1 on right shoulder, exiting core compartment, entering outer compartment, clockwise movement, slow pace, n number of cycles. n-Orthotope repetition 2 is initialized by entering core compartment, releasing infusion-tube 1, right side, installing infusion-tube 2 on left shoulder, exiting core compartment, entering outer compartment, continuation of clock-wise movement, slow pace, n number of cycles. n-Orthotope repetition 3: Body enters core compartment, releases infusion-tube 2, left side,  installs infusion tube 3 on right shoulder, exits core compartment, enters outer compartment, clock-wise movement, slow pace is maintained through n number of cycles.  The repetitive cycles end by entering the core compartment, releasinginfusion-tube 3, right side, exiting core compartment, entering outer compartment and at last exiting the space through left door, end wall.
