Documentation of an installation by Frank Pahl and Terri Sarris. Music composed by Frank Pahl.

In the early 20th Century followers of Spiritualism looked to two young girls to provide evidence of supernatural phenomena. On the side of the Spiritualists Sir Arthur Conan Doyle defended the cousins. Representing the skeptics was Harry Houdini.
Though the photos seem naive today. Follows of Spiritualism were eager to defend their authenticity. Perhaps what one sees in a photo says as much about the viewer as it does the subject.
