A gauze-enclosed pavilion contains a frame bearing webs and
water mist, forming a three-dimensional projection volume. Approximately
50 spiders, Nephila
senegalensis, live on this structure to create the projection
screen with their webs. The viewer enters the spiders' room,
separated from them only by a low fence. The spiders are free.
An unobstructed view is necessary in order to perceive the video
projection on the delicate threads.
