Description
A performance for cello, grand piano, soprano saxophone, surveillance cameras, live video mixing and projection.

Two instruments accompany a silent movie.
Hey, it's a living.

But slowly they realize that not only are they reacting to the image.
Somehow, the image is also reacting to them.

Brazenly they toss in the odd tone, confusing the image. How will it react?

Will the instruments fulfill their job? Will there be a showdown???
