Aside from the machines an artist is connected to, he is in an empty fluorescent room. The gallerist is his lone human visitor. She leans over his vegetative face. Her eyes wander around the room as he groans and gurgles musty bubbles into her ear. She interprets this as something. She then stands in another empty fluorescent room and represents this something. She inhales as if to begin recitation but only holds her breath. “Thhhhp.” She returns to the artist in his bed and listens again.
