The fifteenminute twoscreen digital video installation employs the museums photographic and graphic archives It is a fiction set to melody and percussion which is narrated by a chorus of museum administrators who are organising the records of Arthur Evanss excavation of the Cretan city of Knossos The administrators use Evanss extraordinary documents and photographs to figuratively reconstruct the Knossos Labyrinth within the museums computer server They then imagine its involuted space as a virtual chamber through which museum objects digitally flow clatter and cascade
