Beyond is a myterious virtual world. In a playful spirit of philosophical inquiry, it explores the paradoxes of technology, desire and the paranormal posed since the birth of mechanical reproduction; the phonograph severing the voice from the body, photography capturing the soul and cinema resurrecting the dead.

The visit unfolds according to an itinerary based on a subway map. Different stations placed along colored lines provide access to territories that evoke the symbolism of the places and lives of which they are a part. The emotional drift through this narrative and figurative journey engulfs one in the places of everyday life — the solid textures of walls, the atmosphere of time, the tangible traces of the past and present.
