Using the room as an institutionalized interrogational space, a woman sits in a chair attached to the space by strings and tape. Outside passersby are invited to pick a card from a basket. The card will give them something to say or do to the woman inside. They may also give her an action, which she will respond to with acknowledgement, ignorance, or surprise.
