A kinetic object with the, so-called, black liquid, an automaton that gives a changing pattern of interweaving current and printed contour objects on the map. An aquarium with a map of the administrative division of the USSR in a steel frame hangs on the wall and is cyclically filled through syringe needles stuck into cities through tubes from a dropper with black liquid.

The work is formal, all materials in the work, including the map, were chosen exclusively for their external, technical characteristics. In 2008, only the beauty of the interweaving of black lines, changing running lines and once printed real ones, matters.

The dust at the joints of the metal rods grows according to the special laws of almost organic plant life.

The project is among the minor manifestations of the beauty of the world that interested the author during 2011.
