ultrasonic position sensors
Installed in a space 11 x 30 ft.

A spectator enters the long dark space and views a laserdisk image of a groping couple projected onto a horizontal platform covered with salt. As the spectator moves forward, the projection zooms in on the couple, whose movements become successively more enlarged and abstract as the spectator continues. Moving back has the opposite affect on the image.
