A performative raft trip on the River Mur (the audience on board) was organized at dusk, which was about experiencing one’s own body, beyond scientific measurement systems. Time and space were to be experienced physically, such as feeling and seeing distances.
The raft trip was intended to be a rite of initiation for fellow travelers to take personal measurements. A reading of the river through sensory impressions was offered.
