An empty room with a table and some flyers in the corner.
The sound of white noise.The room is one storey up. Two sets of large windows face out onto the street.A projector near the back of the room is projecting through the window – onto nothing.Just after 6.30, two abseilers appear in view outside the right-hand window. They slowly descend, unfurling a plain white banner with them. As the banner unfurls, the role of the projector becomes clear, the banner is taking the place of a screen.The image on the banner clarifies as the climbers continue their descent – it is another abseiler, in another place. The image is life size and blurry, it looks to be archival footage – taken by activists on the ground for legal posterity.
The person in the projected image climbs up and down the rope, second guessing himself and swaying in the wind.
The climbers descend to the bottom.
The flyer speaks of suspension.
