Revolving Restaurant (1981, 3.5 minutes, silent, live performance)

A Camera Dance, made in one shot.

The film is of the view out the window of the revolving restaurant at the top of Toronto's
CN Tower. When the film is projected, John performs in front of the screen, miming the part of a customer eating at a table near the window. But the film was shot at changing speeds so the restaurant's revolving becomes dizzyingly fast, and John's miming follows.
