A
data-projection of computer-animated text onto the external surface of the
actual building. The text is sampled from the first and last pages of each
of the one-hundred books. A computer programme has been developed, in association
with Bob Farrell, which randomly selects text samples, and which fades these
up against a black background. The text 'floats' about the upper part of
the building and eventually floats up and out of the top of the building,
disappearing into the night sky.
