Video HD, 2009. Without duration, without beginning, without end. All floors are equidistant. The verticality of the architecture of the building is subverted by the experience of looking; by the horizontal motion. Being all floors equidistant from each other, the vertical movement couldn't be contained in the video, only if all floors coexist at the same level.
