A long migration; three performers get tangled up in piles of old wooden furniture in a dark basement. The performers and the furniture are interchangeable, taking on the qualities of the other, animating and being animated. Two sound artists use contact microphones to amplify sewing thread woven throughout the room like cobwebs; the performers rub the thread and produce wood-like groans.
