A study for
Aftenpostle (Newspaper) and the Oslo Architectfornung (Architectural Association), shown at the Kunstnernes Hus, Oslo. The exhibit demonstrated the possibilities of the extension of world communication systems into a domestic situation to give a use of information and entertainment expanded onto an environmental scale. This is a pilot study for the Instant City Study.
