"In a riddle whose answer is riddle, what is the only prohibited word?"

Forked proposes a visual and sound perception of overlapped spaces (real and fictional). The video was recorded in a labyrinthine building and the audio is a recreation made of and by excerpts of the short writing The Garden of Forking Paths, by Jorge Luis Borges. Some sentences were taken and mixed in order to recreate the feeling of the story, connecting also to the video images. While the video repeats once (4 minutes), the audio (1min20s) repeats three times.
