1993 - Biennale Internationale d'Art de Groupe, Lezard Plastic Production, Marseille, France.

This was an installation-performance carried out in Marseille during the Biennale des Arts de Groupe. Forty helium balloons were attached to sound-making objects. The objects were immersed in buckets of water, and the strings holding back the balloons were placed in the water. Once everything was set up, which took a large part of the day, each bucket was pierced with a very small hole in its base. As the buckets slowly emptied, the sound sources started to become audible, and as soon as the weight of the water reached a certain threshold, the balloons flew off, and with them the sound sources, disseminating the installation into the sky of Marseille.
