Using the time-lapse method I film myself performing classical dance pirouettes for a total of 30 minutes; without any music, but with the thought of laying it down on video to the strains of "On the beautiful Blue Danube" (Johann Strauss).
This takes place on and between two tables, which have been pushed together.
I attempt to place the stretched out foot of my rear leg on the table.
When will the three meters of film finally come to an end – I try to keep smiling.

Keep turning, join in, keep going.

- Won the first prize of the jury at the “SarLorLux- Festival” / Saarbrücken / 2008
