"[..] In 1844, Samuel Morse invented Morse code, enabling people to communicate instantly over long distances [..] A few years later, a teenage girl called Kate Fox in Rochester, New York began communicating with the spirit of a murdered peddlar by rapping on the walls of her house, using her own crude alphanumerical system, a kind of "folk" appropriation of Morse code. [..] Her psychic activities caused a sensation parallel to the telegraph, sparking the New American Spiritualist Movement, which is still in existence today." (Oursler in Neri, 2001)

Psychic and metaphysic contacts in relation to history of telecommunications inspire Tony Oursler to create Influence Machine (2000). Oursler uses video projections of figures such as the Fox sisters or ghosts, telling stories form another spatiotemporal dimension, onto trees and smoke.

Busker is a lighthearted story of two street performers who tussle to keep the attention of an audience. It was filmed on 35mm with French actor Dominique Pinon in the lead, and runs 6 minutes. The story is told entirely without dialogue.

Nirgends kann ich die angebliche Bibelstelle der Einleitung finden!
In Johannes/John 1:15 heißt es:
""Johannes trat als Zeuge für ihn auf. Er rief: "Das ist der, von dem ich sagte: Nach mir kommt einer, der über mir steht; denn bevor ich geboren wurde, war er schon da." ""
""John told about him. He cried out, "This is the one I was talking about when I said, ´He comes after me, but he is greater than I am, because he existed before I was born.`""
