A video program about the emergence of new spaces of interaction, of new technologies and of formations of desire; about the meandering of stimuli which hover above and insinuate themselves into our familiar habitats (physical and psychological) like a kind of inscrutable and formless spectre of the present. Urban zones of potential and tension.
