Evaporation of the Constitution of Russian Federation
Evaporation of the Constitution of Russian Federation
We translate the text of the Constitution of the Russian Federation into Morse code, and we transmit it with the help of drops of water, pauses between them, and hot irons. A drop falls only if the iron is sufciently hot. The goal of the process is to transmit information in the form of steam. The text of the Constitution is displayed on the screen so that the viewers can see the information that is being
evaporated at the moment.
