strung: Hickman vs. Grigg

Two speakers placed at either end of the gallery emit the sound of a continuous tennis volley in stereo. The sound of an invisible tennis ball being continually thrust from one side of the gallery to the other creates a complete sensual environment for the audience. However, the initial sensual thrill of the ball being hit is slowly sullied, as the danger of standing in amongst a relentless contest becomes apparent.
