This installation pays hommage to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nam_June_Paik/ Nam June Paik's] "Random Access", first displayed in 1963. "Random Access" allows its audience to compose a personal music piece by guiding a sound pick-up across strips of magnetic tape on the wall. | |||

The interactive audioplay is narrated by Lula herself. In parts (such as the various end points) the narrative diverges in irreconcilable ways, leaving the viewer to wonder whether what they just heard is factually true. | ||

'''''Visage'', 1984, unknown media''' | |||
'''''Basement Puzzle #2 (artist, sunset, and horse).'' 1976. Plaster and wire.''' | |||
