In the middle of a large exhibition space, we see an unattended piano with a raised lid, as well as a monitor placed on a base near the wall. They are connected by electrical wires. A haphazard sequence of notes is quietly playing. Occasional close-ups show us certain details, such as the inside of the piano and its electronic components.
