Presentation, on a TV monitor, in the Kunstverein, of the video "Identifications' - initially titled Artscapes and grouping the works of 20 artists - who will be featured in a television program which will air on November 30, on the TV channel Sudwestfunk.
November 30, 1970, Programm der ARD (SWF) Sudwestfunk 10:50 p.m.
Right after the name Daniel Buren is shown announcing his participation in the TV program, there is a simulated break up of the broadcast and there is displayed on the screen a sign "Storung" (Disruption), generally used when a program is interrupted due to a technical difficulty. This happens just about in the middle of the program.
The technicians in the television studio, unaware that this is just a simulation, show their irritation and frustration at this 'error' which, from their point of view, may be blamed on them.
