Yes, the famous piece Critter (also called videoplace) of Myron
Krueger... It is indeed very difficult to find information and
especially images of this piece on the internet. I would like to
include some links on the web site I maintain on artificial systems
in art (http://www.gratin.org/), but all I could find was these pages
that only remotely speak about this important piece :
http://www.isea.qc.ca/symposium/archives/isea94/pr208.html
http://myweb.spacelab.net/~eforman/vr/vr_appendix.html

Does someone know of a better description, possibly with images ?

Thank you,

           Antoine
