A young boy is taught how to make a wineglass whistle by rubbing ones finger around the
edge of the glass. A recording of this action was made on 16mm film, without sound. In the
installation, the film runs out of the projector, through the space, over two wine glasses.
The film strip is guided over two actual wineglasses. Just like in the image, they start to
whistle, creating the sound of which we see the source in the projection.
