A sculpture in the form of a rock levitates and moves horizontally. This movement is generated by a custom machine which moves in sync (X/Y axis) and the rotation of a levitation platform. On the top a sculpture levitates and follows the platform movements. Two 65” plasma displays are fixed behind the sculpture. It plays a point cloud 3D animation film.
