Gas flames are modulated by electrical signals in such a way that they produce audible sound waves and thus become loudspeakers. Issuing from these flame-loudspeakers set up in birdcages— for the artist, a symbol of the afterlife— are speeches by Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini and Roosevelt over a background of chirping birds.
