I invited the three curators, Sotirios Bahtsetzis, Elpida Karabas and Anne-Laure Oberson into a game
The terms of the game are as follows
I give a text to each one of the three. The text consists of seven words as well as of the blank/distance among them.
The dimensions of the text are given. The way of the transmission of the text is via the Internet. I then give each curator
a thesis of action. The action of each is to intervene in the text by either adding or subtracting a word.
Simultaneously with the sending of the text to the three curators, the time for constructing the object starts in my
studio. The object is being created dialectically with the text. It reacts to the action/ intervention in the text.
Following each intervention the text will be sent, circularly, to the next participant.
Any change to the text body causes a change onto the body of the object. Both object and text will be moving among the
three curators and myself, according to the thesis of action of each of the three.
Each of the three curators is not to see simultaneously either object or text. Therefore, they are never to see the same
thing.
In its first phase, namely before the opening of the exhibition, the game lasts 7 days. Three interventions take place each day on both object and text at given time instants. 
The second phase of the game starts simultaneously with the opening of the exhibition. 
The game will be continued with the participation of the viewers.
On each day of the exhibition, once a day, the audience will have the possibility to intervene on the text by adding or taking away one word each time.
After the viewer’s intervention the text is to be sent to me.
I will then analogously intervene in the object and then send via internet an image of the object to the exhibition space.
