What: Two applications are open, one showing a scene from 'Coffee & Cigarettes' called 'Somewhere in California' by Jim Jarmusch; another shows an open skype conversation.

How: By two people transcribing, in Skype, the conversation the two characters are having in the scene, and reinterpreting the conversation into a digital culture-format the a new scene is created where the form and context of the conversation is put into a digital context. It questions our views on digital conversation versus embodied conversation.

Why: To question the form and conduct of digital and embodied communication as something similar, mirrored almost. Our traditional forms of communication are our basis for digital communication, but is it such a useful basis to put on a completely new form of communication; that of the telegraph, the text message can not compare to the radio, television.
