Employing an audiovisual discourse, the environmental video installation project conveys a critical-social portrait that highlights the dynamics of the man-nature relationship. The chosen setting was a depiction of a beach, at a given moment, regarded as a common social location. This setting sums up an everyday process of interference of man in his environs.

Building on a caricature of modern urban man, seen through the symbols of mass communication, four black-and-white monitors discuss, amongst themselves, the characteristic vignettes of each existing TV channel, such as Globo, Manchete etc.

Through a television image primarily determined by the noise typical of this medium, coupled with the discourse produced by the vignettes and set on a beach, the project depicts a certain moment within this continuous cycle of experience, in which causes and effects follow one another in so many levels that they lose their specific meanings.
