Participants cooperated to knit a tube of fabric that gradually descended to the floor over the course of the show. In addition to referencing Quantum Mechanics the piece also comments on Capitalism.
Only the right combination of actions by participants pedalling bikes (Labor) and sitting on a couch in the Cafe (Capital) will produce the knitting (Craft).
