Visitors to the performance were asked to participate in a series of chance based games to chose 9 note and 9 color combinations from the lists.
Each of these 9 chosen color combinations were then projected for a minute each in the exhibition space while a group of 10 musicians used the note combinations to perform a live improvised score.
