A 40-metre wall with a 1.5‑metre gap at each end is built to bisect the gallery. Hid­den inside the wall are a series of micro­phones con­nect­ed to a PA sys­tem. The entrance side of the gallery is emp­ty. On the oth­er side of the gallery, com­ing out from the bisect­ing wall a base­ball bat is attached to a steel chain. The audi­ence is invit­ed to strike the wall. Their action is ampli­fied at 120db.
