Abstract

A university lecture theatre viewed from the back rows: a long blackboard at the front on a white wall, on the left a door, also white, above which hangs a large analogue clock. Anyone entering through that door will immediately find themselves facing a lectern for addressing people below, a university audience in wooden seats that are neatly arranged, rigid, and immovable. A classroom without windows, intended for a large audience as many seats are visible and more can be surmised. An aseptic or even clinical atmosphere, despite the wooden slats forming part of the chairs.
