Lawrence Malstaf - Rope
Title
Rope
Date
01999
Material
A rope slowly curls around a chair, caressing it carefully. As the speed increases, the torsion builds up and the rope becomes a strangling snake approaching itÂ’s pray and eventually the chair is violently tossed around. Although a computer programme running the same scenario again and again controls this treacherous serpent it's movements and curls stay abrupt and unpredictable. Beware and do not feed the rope.
