Four boxes with megaphone-speakers are placed on tripods at the corners of the room.
When a person enters the room, voices are heard from the speakers.
They say: “one point five meters” – “four meters” – “two meters” – “two point five meters”. Each box speaks a different language.
Three of the speakers states “You win”.
After a few second, the sequence starts all over again: Each speaker states a distance and once again one of the speakers is declared winner.
The voices are obviously playing some sort of game. After a while, the person in the room realizes she is taking part in the game: She plays the part of the counter being moved on the board. The speakers are playing a game of attracting the visiting persons.
