The performance took place in zoom, mediated by susana paiva who introduced the audience to the rules of interaction with the work, namely, the ability to resize the two windows where the performance took place, switch cam and mike off and place questions via chat. The screenshare window featured an animation of the book pages, synchronous with its reading out loud by  Victoria (The Received Pronunciation automated voice in Acrobat Pro). msdm studio window featured video stream of four actions {rehearsed with the support of Hugo Santos) related to visualising, editing, publishing and distributing of the book.
