This tape documents an event staged at the 1999 opening of Kelley's solo exhibition in Braunschweig, Germany. Kelley and artist Kalin Lindena modelled doll's clothes in a "dungeon-like" cellar. A DJ stationed in the cellar communicated their activities by intercom to a DJ in a dance tent outside. His music selections were relayed back to the cellar through speakers, and influenced the actions of the models, producing an interactive circuit.
