During the journey from Moscow to Odessa, the view from the train window is recorded. The video camera is connected with a laptop, which is placed in the centre of the image. The recording is transmitted to the computer and filmed once again. Due to the technically caused delay the Ukrainian landscape passes by in a time-staggered fashion in the display windows. The multiply replicated reflections, their pictorial depths, intersect with the horizontal movement of the ride.
