The installation is a distribution hub in itself. The natural structures of the organic elements with the arrangement of the human knowledge and culture are transmitters of information.
It's a magical ritual when the shaman sends his message to the aerial, water, arboreal and animal spirits and thus these messages reach their receiver in a comprehensible form.
It is not necessary to use the internet or a phone to transmit this information; this could easily be achieved through gestures, voice, stones, metal, light, color.
With time passing, history and people change and the instruments become more complex or simpler but the purpose of these instruments remains the same-to serve the people. The purpose is to get to know oneself and to know what's important for you and find your truth.
Chaos begets the form and the form has to move and change, to be free. Thus the instruments are left after they've served their purpose until they are needed again.
