Synopsis
The video work is based on the event „Hansa Satelite” that took place in Riga 2001 and during which several photographs were to be made by the space telescope Hubble. In the same time the event was observed by two video cameras. The organisers claimed to expose the photographs in Munich, Riga and Tallinn, as well as to arrange transmission on MTV. In reality the event was fiction, without any real consequences. It was a research about the reaction of the society to the calls of unknown persons to a telephone box.
