Hello- Just to let you know that a new version of Bridge will be opening at Z33 in Hasselt (Belgium) on the 29th of May this year (2008). It’s a new and much superioir version implemented through two rooms in the galleries there. It’s free and all are welcome.

This ‘bridge’ is purely mechanical, the weight of the person on it depresses each step a little, this force activates a submerged mechanism which raises the next step. LINK [...]
