| 6 small rooms like a toilet are located. Visitors can choose any rooms and can sit on a toilet type chair in the room. They hear the sound of water of a bathroom intermittently from 4 speakers at the 4 corners of the room. All walls and doors are made by Japanese paper and wooden frame. Some portions of the Japanese paper contain oil. The paper containing oil is more transparent than the portion which is not contained. There are some holes on the walls of inside of each bathrooms. But visitors can not see the next door directly. Because the walls have double paper layer, and the location of the holes in each room is different. Electric bulbs in each room are blinked irregularly by relay switches. The transparency of the paper changes intricately by the lighting situation. When you feel the sign of someone in other rooms, the people may be unable to feel it of you. And the contrary may also exist. |
