The continuously playing videotape is comprised of interspersed footage of television commercials, people watching television, and documentary war films. The floor of the bunker is a facsimile sand painting based on a simple electronic microcircuit. In 1988 The piece was installed in a three person exhibition called "Fields of Fire" at The Detroit Institute of Arts, Detroit, Michigan.
