The artists wrote a script for a horror film based in St Paul's Church, where an exhibition was to take place. On the night of the opening, an electric guitarist improvised a two-hour film score to the script. Inside the church, only the guitarist could hear the guitar through his headphones. Outside the church, the sound could be heard from a large speaker system in the bell tower, filling the surrounding square with the guitarist's impression of the horror script.
The script closely follows the Classic Hollywood Narrative System (CHNS), a formal system used in 99% of Hollywood films to keep viewers attention, implying a symbolic control over people using the space outside the church.
