Travel Site is a corridor with two big windows on each side. The windows are back projection screens on which images of a train trip are projected. JPF shoot the images from a train window, travelling up north from New York City, after a big blizzard on the winter of 93. To the ambient sound of inside the train, sounds of a moving train (capture on the outside) were mixed. The big scale of the projection windows (2.5 x 5 mts.), the short width of the corridor (2 mts.), plus the speed of the images, depicted an amazing vortex effect.
