A viewer's interactive process of operating the piece links together its various aspects into its final form. Mounting the weight bench requires the viewer to place themselves into a somewhat awkward, vulnerable position. This causes the viewer to be highly self-conscious at the beginning of their interaction with the piece, however once they start cranking the generator and see the image sequences, they forget their body and start trying to understand the imagery they are seeing. It takes some experimentation to begin to understand how to read the different modes of the piece, with the imagery serving to reinforce certain types of behavior (speed and duration of cranking).
