Fortress of Solitaire
















A small table with a computer, empty coffee cup, ashtray, and chair. On the screen, a fullscreen video of solitaire games being played, edited so that every game is a winner. In the background can be heard the soundtracks of tv shows, action movies, standup-shows, documentaries, whatever I was watching at the time of recording the solitaire games. A dissonance is created between the varying emotional contents of the soundtrack, and the relentless monotonous click-click-click of the games. Surrounding the setup (on cubicle walls, if available) is paper printouts of solitaire games locked in unsolvable states.
