Preceding SISEA, Groningen city invited a number of international most renouned architects to design and build so-called Video Pavilions: Mini musea appeared (approximately the seize of a cargo container), spread over the city centre, in which music videos were to be shown. Architects included Rem Koolhaas, Zaha Hadid, Bernard Tschumi, Peter Eisenman and Coop-Himmelblau.
For the occasion of SISEA the tilted glass pavilion by Bernard Tschumi was the location of a video program compiled by SISEA and a try-out performance by Stelarc, some days before his ‘official’ performance at the SISEA night of Concerts & Performances.
