The installation is made out of a large black and white projection and sound. The sound is immersive also using subwoofers for particularly low frequencies reproduction. That puts the visitor/traveler in the center of the perception field. Sounds are made out of field recordings and electronic sounds. The project is conceived on three different formats: installation, film screening, and live set.
As Giuliana Bruno writes: "Rather than the description of an elsewhere, mapping turns out to be a domestic enterprise. The cartographer travels domestic, so t speak, as she maps her own territory. Cartography, a public form of knowledge, is actually a private journey, mapping of one's owna drawing of one's own home. No wonder only one map was drawn in a lifetime. Perhaps, in the end, one can aspire only to chart a single graphic design and expect to spend a lifetime drawing it: the one imaginative map, the map of one's home."
