Two Gameboy’s connected by a cable are placed on a miniature replica of a ping pong table. Visitors are invited to play a classic version of the video game « Pong » (tennis game). Unlike the original game, the ball is not visible to both players at the same time but passes from one screen to the other creating a surprise. The work is a metaphor of the Internet in which a packet « the ball » is exchanged from one terminal to another through a net.
