Elixir had a lot of cushions on the floor that were made by Pipilotti’s sister Tamara Rist.

Open My Glade (april 6. 0 May 20. 2000), Rist's first public art project in New York, was composed of 16 one-minute video segments interspersed with NBC and Panasonic programming at a quarter past the hour, every hour from 9:15 am to 12:15 am. Rist's collection of videos, set against Times Square's backdrop of uncoordinated blinking lights and flashing messages, appeared in slow motion. These videos relayed poetic, philosophical, and political statements through close-ups, flying camera work, and intense colours.
